Another Simple Favor on Prime Video premiering opening night at SXSW 2025 – Today, South by Southwest® (SXSW®) Conference and Festivals announced this year’s Opening Night Film Premiere will be the Amazon MGM Studios feature, Another Simple Favor.
The highly anticipated follow-up to director Paul Feig’s A Simple Favor will make its world premiere at the festival on March 7 at the Paramount Theatre. Another Simple Favor launches globally on Prime Video May 1.
Quote from Head of Amazon MGM Studios, Jennifer Salke:
“Paul Feig has once again delivered the perfect blend of mystery, wit, and unexpected twists in the highly anticipated Another Simple Favor. The cast, led by the extraordinarily talented Blake Lively and Anna Kendrick, brings life to a script that propels the sequel to new heights. We are beyond grateful for our collaborations with Paul, Blake, Anna, and the entire cast and filmmaking team. We could not be more excited to share the next chapter of this saga with the always enthusiastic SXSW audience and ultimately with our Prime Video customers around the world.”
Quote from director and producer, Paul Feig:
“I couldn’t be more thrilled to be back at my favorite festival in the world where we successfully launched Bridesmaids and Spy, and I cannot begin to say how honored I am to have our film opening it all. I’ve avoided making sequels to any of my films but these characters were just too much fun not to revisit. So, to be able to have Anna, Blake, Henry, Andrew, Michele, Elizabeth, Alex and myself watch our film with the great SXSW audience is a bucket list event I’ll be able to check off March 7th and move playing drums for Dwight Yoakum’s band up to the top slot.”
