IN U.S. THEATERS AND ON DIGITAL OCTOBER 24th

 Blue Fox Entertainment announced today its acquisition of Peterson Polaris Corp’s coming-of-age comedy, “This Too Shall Pass,” set for release in U.S. theaters and on digital platforms on October 24, 2025.The film boasts a talented ensemble of rising young stars, including Maxwell Jenkins (Joe Bell, Netflix’s Lost in Space), Jeremy Ray Taylor (It, Senior Year), Katie Douglas (Ginny & Georgia), Jaylin Webb (Armageddon Time), Nikki Roumel (Ginny & Georgia), Chris Sandiford (FX’s What We Do in the Shadows, Moonfall), Aidan Laprete (The Wilds), Ben Cockell (Goosebumps), and Munro Chambers (Turbo Kid). They are joined by Joanne Kelly (City on a Hill), Robert Longstreet (Sorry to Bother You), and feature Mark McKinney (Kids in the Hall) and Michael Ironside (Starship Troopers).

This Too Shall Pass tells the spirited story of 16-year-old Simon, who, feeling stifled by his strict Mormon upbringing, rebels by embarking on a spontaneous weekend getaway to Canada with his close-knit group of friends. What begins as a carefree escape quickly evolves into a journey of self-discovery, as each friend confronts their personal struggles and insecurities.

The film is further enhanced by a nostalgic ’80s soundtrack featuring hits from iconic bands such as The Cure, New Order, Corey Hart, and The Jesus and Mary Chain. This musical backdrop helps to capture the essence of adolescence, exploring themes of friendship, rebellion, and the quest for self-discovery when the world feels overwhelmingly small.Written and directed by Rob Grant (Harpoon), with a story by Michael Simon Baker, “This Too Shall Pass” was produced by David Hiatt and Michael Peterson (Harpoon, Shadow Of God) for Peterson Polaris Corp. Michael Simon Baker and Jason R. Ellis of Eclipse Management & Entertainment served as executive producers.You can watch the trailer for “This Too Shall Pass”
