Method Man's movie "The Wackness" sold to Sony

Wackness
We mentioned the Sundance Film Festival hype surrounding the film The Wackness which features Method Man as a Rastafarian drug dealer and is supported by a kick-ass early 90's hip-hop soundtrack. Meth did his part promoting the movie as he was very active at Sundance giving interviews and showing up at events and it looks like his work along with the rest of the cast paid off as Sony Classics has recently purchased the film in the low seven figures. Hollywood critics loved this movie but apparently are already pissed off that Sony Classics is handling the release in fear they will butcher the marketing and release pattern of it. Only time will tell but at least it will now get a legit release. Expect The Wackness hopefully in a theater near you by the end of 2008 or early 2009.
