Virgil Films has picked up U.S. rights to I Am Chris Farley, a documentary about the late comic actor. Directed by Brent Hodge and Derik Murray, the pic features interviews with his co-stars and colleagues including Christina Applegate, Dan Aykroyd, Mike Myers, Adam Sandler, Jon Lovitz, Lorne Michaels, Jay Mohr, Molly Shannon, Bob Odenkirk, Bob Saget and David Spade. Virgil will open the docu from Network Entertainment in the late summer in select theaters — perhaps one in a van down by the river — and it will premiere August 10 on Spike TV, followed by a VOD release. I Am Chris Farley is executive produced by Paul Gertz, Kent Wingerak and Robert Pirooz. The deal was negotiated by Virgil President and CEO Joe Amodei and Network CEO Derik Murray.
