Bill Condon to Direct ‘The Road Home’ Musical, Sales Launched at Cannes

AI-synthesized · Bias removed · Facts only

Bill Condon, director of “Dreamgirls,” “Kiss of the Spider Woman” and the $1.26 billion-grossing “Beauty and the Beast,” knows how to film a musical number. That made him a natural choice to helm “The Road Home,” a musical that tells the story of Paul Simon’s ‘Graceland.’ Laura Bickford is also involved in bringing the project to the screen.

The film stars Cynthia Erivo, Thabo Rametsi and Guy Pearce.

Palisades Park Pictures launched international sales for the feature at the Cannes Film Festival.
