Amazon Studios has set an awards season release of Nov. 8 for Shia Labeouf’s show business drama “Honey Boy.”
The story centers on a child star attempting to mend his relationship with his law-breaking, alcohol-abusing father over the course of a decade and is loosely based on Labeouf’s life. “Honey Boy” was Labeouf’s childhood nickname. The actor broke out in 2000 when he was 14 in Disney Channel series “Even Stevens,” then starred in “Transformers” and “Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull,” while struggling with substance abuse and brushes with the law.
Hedges portrays the young-adult version of Labeouf, while Labeouf plays his own father. “A Quiet Place” star Jupe portrays the younger version of Labeouf and Maika Monroe plays an aspiring actress named Sandra. Labeouf is now 32.
Alma Har’el directed from Labeouf’s script. Producers are Automatik’s Brian Kavanaugh-Jones, Daniela Taplin Lundberg of Stay Gold Features,...
