"We chose to support Tony because it is not a standard biopic and doesn't attempt to summarise a life. Guided by the vision of director Matt Johnson, the film depicts one transformative summer in 1975 in Provincetown, Massachusetts."
"I knew if a scene was working when Dom said, Seems right,' and I knew it wasn't when he said, Why would I say this?' More than any movie I've ever made, this film was a partnership with an actor."
The first trailer for the biopic Tony features Dominic Sessa as a young Anthony Bourdain navigating his initial experiences in the culinary world during the mid-70s. The film, directed by Matt Johnson, focuses on a transformative summer in 1975 in Provincetown, Massachusetts, rather than summarizing Bourdain's entire life. Bourdain's estate supports the film for its unique interpretation of his character and journey. Johnson emphasizes the partnership with Sessa, who embodies Bourdain's restless spirit and complexity throughout the film.
