Disney+ has announced that Searchlight Pictures’ Rye Lane will begin streaming exclusively on Disney+ on May 3rd in the UK & Ireland.
From director Raine Allen-Miller, Rye Lane is a romantic comedy that stars David Jonsson and Vivian Oparah , as Dom and Yas, two twenty-somethings both reeling from bad break-ups, who connect over the course of an eventful day in South London – helping each other deal with their nightmare exes, and potentially restoring their faith in romance.
Written by Nathan Bryon & Tom Melia, and directed by Raine Allen-Miller, the film is produced by Yvonne Isimeme Ibazebo and Damian Jones.
The film was developed with the assistance of BBC Film, and funded by Searchlight Pictures, BBC Film and the BFI (awarding National Lottery funding). Executive Producers are Eva Yates and Rose Garnett for BBC Films, Kristin Irving for the BFI, Sophie Meyer, Paul Grindey and Charles Moore.
