JUNE 3 Louis C.K. releases his self-financed film, “Fourth of July”:
Here’s a movie with a twist we didn’t see coming — one starring disgraced comedian Louis C.K. On June 3, he announced a new film project that he directed, independently produced and financed called “Fourth of July,” released July 1. It’s about a young man from New York working out his issues with his problematic family. In the film, he plays the role of therapist — yep, seriously. The movie marks C.K.’s return to the big screen after he was accused of sexual misconduct in 2017 during the peak of the #MeToo movement.
