parted ways with “Pleasure” over conflicts about the theatrical cut of the film. When it nabbed “Pleasure” in February, A24 said it would release the full uncensored version, as well as an R-rated cut, in 2021. Neon says it intends to premiere only the unedited version.
Neon adds, “We are thrilled to be working with Ninja on this incredible achievement and look forward to releasing it, in the director’s vision, as intended.” It has yet to announce a theatrical release date, though Neon plans to re-launch the film with a special Los Angeles premiere screening at AFI Fest on Nov. 13.
