Sony Pictures’ Affirm Films and Mucho Mas Media have set drama Live Like That for a Feb. 26, 2027 theatrical release.
Starring Esai Morales (Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning), Roselyn Sanchez (Act of Valor), Cameron Arnett (The Forge), Ian Casselberry (The Odyssey), Richard Cabral (End of Watch), Carlos Pratts (McFarland, USA), and Jesse Garcia (Flamin’ Hot), the feature is based on an inspiring story about a family whose faith is tested by an unimaginable loss, and what they choose to do next. In the midst of grief, they make a surprising decision. Instead of responding with anger, they choose forgiveness and set out to help heal a divided community. What begins as private heartbreak becomes a broader movement of hope and connection, showing how faith, love, and unity can bring light even to the darkest moments. Dito Montiel wrote and directed with Javier Chapa producing.
“This is a deeply moving story about forgiveness and the kind of love that can transform a family and community,” said Chapa. “It speaks to the healing power of faith, and we are proud to partner with Affirm Films to bring this remarkable true story to audiences worldwide.”
“Live Like That is a story that invites audiences to reflect on the importance of unity, grace, and the people who lift us during life’s most difficult moments,” said Head of Affirm Films, Rich Peluso. “We are proud to bring this film to theaters and share its message of enduring hope and the power of faith.”
“What drew me to this story was how deeply real and emotionally honest it felt. Live Like That is about a family facing devastating loss, but it’s also about resilience and the choice to bring light into darkness. That emotional truth is what made me want to tell this story,” added Montiel.
Two other movies are dated on Feb. 26 next year: Warner Bros’ Sam Esmail directed, Julia Roberts-Eddie Redmayne-Elizabeth Olsen starring Panic Carefully as well as an untitled NEON horror film.
