It’s been announced that Craig Brewer’s “Song Sung Blue” will close AFI FEST 2025 presented by Canva on Sunday, October 26th, 2025.
Based on the true story of a Neil Diamond tribute band, the film follows two down-on-their-luck musicians, played by Hugh Jackman and Kate Hudson, who prove it’s never too late to find love and follow your dreams. The trailer for the Focus Features release went online the other day, which you can watch here. Early word suggests Craig Brewer’s film is said to be a definite crowdpleaser with an Oscar-worthy performance from Kate Hudson that could blow the whole awards season open when it opens theatrically on December 25th.
