A24 Officially Hypes Up Anthony Bourdain Movie

A24 has unveiled early hype for Tony, a new Anthony Bourdain biopic directed by Matt Johnson and starring Dominic Sessa.

The film is set for an August 2026 premiere and focuses on one pivotal summer in Bourdain’s youth.

After a failed fellowship application, he enters restaurant work, a turning point that helped set him on his future path.

By narrowing in on a formative chapter rather than a full life story, Tony could stand out as an awards-season drama and a breakout for A24.
