Cosmic Picture to Distribute Science North’s "Jane Goodall’s Reasons for Hope"

Author: Administrator Account/Saturday, September 18, 2021/Categories: Latest Headlines


September 17, 2021—Cosmic Picture is proud to announce it will distribute Jane Goodall’s Reasons for Hope, an exciting new giant screen film currently in production with the talented team at Science North, an interactive science museum in Greater Sudbury, Ontario, Canada. and Northern Ontario's most popular tourist attraction.


Jane Goodall’s Reasons for Hope is based on iconic Jane Goodall’s philosophy of hope for the world and all of life on it, including both the natural world and its’ human inhabitants. Dr. Jane Goodall, DBE, founder of the Jane Goodall Institute and UN Messenger of Peace, has long been recognized as a trailblazer who revolutionized our understanding of the world. Drawing on historical footage of Jane’s early primate research and her current work as a global advocate for environmental and wildlife conservation, the film will highlight inspiring stories–inclusive of those advanced by her namesake institute–that embody Jane’s reasons for hope across four key themes: the energy and dedication of young people, the extraordinary human brain, the resilience of nature, and the indomitable human spirit. This is Science North’s 8th giant screen film, which includes Jane Goodall’s Wild Chimpanzees released in 2002 to international great acclaim.

“We are excited to be partnering with the experienced team at Cosmic Picture to share this wonderful film with audiences worldwide. There is no better way to engage, educate and inspire audiences than on the giant screen,” said Executive Producer and Science North’s CEO, Guy Labine.

All of Science North’s giant screen films have been directed by the award-winning Canadian director and wildlife biologist, David Lickley.

“Science North has had a long association with Dr. Jane Goodall and I am excited to have the opportunity to work with Jane again to showcase uplifting, inspirational stories about positive outcomes resulting from collective efforts–a film that is sure to appeal to theatres and audiences around the world,” said Film Director, David Lickley.

Cosmic Picture is well positioned to spearhead successful worldwide distribution of this film and will draw on the team’s deep experience with the topic. In 2017, Cosmic Picture President of Distribution, Antonietta Monteleone, led her team to aid the distribution of National Geographic’s feature documentary Jane which focused on Goodall’s early career and earned two Emmy awards.

“We are delighted to partner with Science North to distribute this incredible, educational and inspirational documentary based on Jane Goodall’s philosophy of hope. Now more than ever we must inspire audiences to remain hopeful and conserve the world around us. Jane Goodall’s Reasons for Hope is perfectly aligned with our mission to change audience perception of the universe in ways never imagined,” said Cosmic Picture President of Distribution, Antonietta Monteleone.

“Giving audiences hope that the biodiversity crisis can be solved is a hugely important piece of any museum’s mission. With this film we will help inspire children to believe that nature can be saved.” –George Duffield, Co-Founder Cosmic Picture.

The film will be available April 2023 in Digital 2D & 3D for IMAX and giant screen theaters.
