Irrfan Khan has had a versatile year at movies, with two films well at the box office as well as being applauded critically. With growing popularity worldwide, Irrfan is a regular in Hollywood films too, having last shared screen space with Tom Hanks in Inferno. Now coming to 2018, Puzzle, Irrfan's next Hollywood venture with Marc Turtletaub who’s previous film Little Miss Sunshine won the coveted Academy Award for Best Film, will be releasing across the world. Before it’s global release, Puzzle will have its world premiere at Sundance Film Festival.
Speaking about this Irrfan said, "I am excited about the world premiere. This film is very close to my heart. When I read the script I knew there is something really unusual and beautiful about the story and the characters."
The film is a story of a woman named Agnes, taken for granted as a suburban mother, who discovers a passion for solving jigsaw puzzles which unexpectedly draws her into a new world – where her life unfolds in ways she could never have imagined. About his role, Irrfan says, "I am playing her new world. I have been grateful for the amazing opportunities that have come my way, but I really wanted to break away from the studio films for a bit and do something more intimate. I am glad that I took this chance. "
Directed by Marc Turtletaub and written by Oren Moverman, 'Puzzle' features Irrfan Khan, Kelly Macdonald, David Denman, Bubba Weiler, Austin Abrams, Liv HewsonAgnes in lead roles. The 2018 Sundance Film Festival runs January 18th through 28th. Screenings will take place in Utah's Park City, Salt Lake City, and Sundance Mountain Resort.
