NEW YORK, NY — Sacrifice, the latest film from director Romain Gavras, son of acclaimed Greek filmmaker Costa-Gavras, will premiere on Netflix on October 16.
The comedy-adventure was filmed in Greece, Bulgaria, and Iceland and features an international cast that includes Chris Evans, Anya Taylor-Joy, Vincent Cassel, Salma Hayek, and John Malkovich.
Sacrifice premiered in the Special Presentations section of the Toronto International Film Festival on September 6, 2025. Netflix acquired the film’s distribution rights in May 2026. Following its theatrical release in Italy on August 12, the film is scheduled to begin streaming on Netflix in France and the United States on October 16.
The film marks Gavras’ English-language directorial debut. His previous work has primarily been in French, including the critically acclaimed 2022 film Athena, which was nominated for the Golden Lion at the Venice International Film Festival.
The production’s filming in Greece adds another connection to Romain Gavras’ Greek heritage, with the country serving as one of the locations for the international production.
