Julia Roberts leads the cast of After the Hunt as the opening selection for the 63rd New York Film Festival. Director Luca Guadagnino helms this Amazon MGM Studios production featuring Michael Stuhlbarg, Ayo Edebiri, Chloe Sevigny and Andrew Garfield. Nora Garrett penned the screenplay for this campus drama. The festival previously opened with prestigious films such as Martin Scorsese's The Irishman and Joel Coen's The Tragedy of Macbeth. RaMell Ross's Nickle Boys launched the previous year's program.

The story centers on Roberts as Yale philosophy professor Alma Olsson whose life unravels when her student accuses a colleague of sexual assault. Academic privilege crumbles as Alma confronts complex issues of power and gender. Venice Film Festival will host the world premiere before the North American debut at Alice Tully Hall on September 26. Festival artistic director Dennis Lim praised Guadagnino as a versatile filmmaker. The event continues through October 13 as a major awards season platform.
