Virtual Press Day 'Love, Danielle' with Devin Sidell, Jaime King
WHO
Devin Sidell, Jaime King, Lesley Ann Warren, Barry Bostwick
WHAT
A virtual press junket ahead of the Oct. 3 release of the heartfelt, humorous and honest film LOVE, DANIELLE, with producers and cast available for interviews.
Love, Danielle is the first scripted feature film to explore what it’s like to live with a BRCA gene mutation before a cancer diagnosis. An estimated 1 in 200 to 400 people worldwide carry a BRCA mutation, and the emotional issues, medical decisions, and family upheaval that can follow such a discovery has never been depicted on screen…until now.
Devin Sidell, who stars as Danielle, is BRCA1-positive in real life. In November 2016, she underwent a preventative oophorectomy and hysterectomy while her sister was receiving chemotherapy for triple-negative breast cancer. Their mother survived ovarian cancer in 1994 and breast cancer in 2012; their aunt died from ovarian cancer in 1996. In 2017, Sidell chose to undergo a preventative double mastectomy. Before her breast reconstruction, she filmed scenes for Love, Danielle, boldly revealing her scars and expanders so audiences could witness the raw, unfiltered reality of these deeply personal decisions.
