Jockey starring Clifton Collins Jr., Molly Parker, Moises Arias, Logan Cormier, and Colleen Hartnett will open in theaters in New York and Los Angeles on December 29, then expand throughout the country over the following weeks via Sony Pictures Classics.

Directed by Clint Bentley, the film world premiered at the 2021 Sundance Film Festival where Clifton Collins Jr. won the U.S. Dramatic Special Jury Award for Best Actor.

In the film, an aging  jockey (Collins) hopes to win one last title for his longtime trainer (Parker), who has acquired what appears to be a championship horse. But the years – and injuries – have taken a toll on his body, throwing into question his ability to continue his lifelong passion. And the arrival of a young rookie rider (Arias), who claims to be his son and whom he takes under his wing, further complicates the path to fulfilling his dream.
