Crackle, Sony Pictures Television Networks’ free, ad-supported streaming network, has announced that it has acquired distribution rights in North America to the comedy-horror film, Office Uprising. The feature from Mind the GAP Productions and The Exchange, a production, financing and sales company, will release in Summer 2018.
Office Uprising follows the story of an underachiever working at a major weapons manufacturing firm who finds that his co-workers have been “weaponized” by a new energy drink designed for the military.
