“I find it hard to watch myself,” Olivier winner Benedict Cumberbatch said while discussing his Sundance film THE THING WITH FEATHERS. “I started out on stage where there’s a fourth wall…. To sit there and watch it is very, very odd.”

John Lithgow stars in "Jimpa," a new film that premiered at the Sundance Film Festival. He has two nude scenes in the film.

"Jimpa" director Sophie Hyde dished about her leading man at the Sundance Film Festival. John Lithgow has been a fixture on movie (and even TV) screens for more than five decades, so he's as professional as they come.

Deadline's Baz Bamigboye writes that John Lithgow is extraordinary as he bares his soul in ‘Jimpa,’ which opened the 2025 Sundance Film Festival.

That we’re watching John Lithgow go on about oral sex and Olivia Colman chatting about polyamory with her teenage child make the film that much odder.

John Lithgow, who stars alongside Olivia Colman in "Jimpa" shared his excitement. "It's so exciting! I don't think I've ever been in the opening premiere at Sundance. We were thrilled to get that invitation."

Sophie Hyde’s highly unorthodox family portrait pays homage to her dad, who died before her trans child could appreciate his pioneering personality.

"Jimpa," which screened at the Sundance Film Festival, is director Sophie Hyde's personal story but indulges too much to welcome viewers outside her immediate family.

Starring alongside Oscar winner Olivia Colman and Aud Mason-Hyde, Lithgow plays a titular character in “Jimpa,” a father and grandfather who left his family behind in Australia years ago to move to Amsterdam and live as an openly gay man and activist.

As it searches for a new home beyond Park City, Utah, the film festival showcases a neo-western, a promising comedic debut and two unsettling documentaries.
