Louis C.K.'s 'I Love You, Daddy' won't get a release
Ah, consequences.
Following cancelation of the film premiere and a New York Times story in which five women accused Louis C.K. of sexual misconduct, C.K.'s film I Love You, Daddy will no longer be released.
The film's distributor, The Orchard, announced the news Friday morning with a brief statement confirmed to Mashable:
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.
I Love You, Daddy was already raising eyebrows for its timing and subject matter; in the film, Chloe Grace Moretz plays C.K.'s daughter and begins dating a much older man – it bears more than a few similarities to Woody Allen's actual life.
The film itself felt like an invitation to speculate about C.K. himself, to wonder if rumors about his inappropriate behavior were true and what could possibly be done if they were.
On Thursday, the film's official red carpet premiere was canceled, as was C.K.'s scheduled appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.
