Directed by Matt Johnson (BlackBerry), TONY, is the electric origin story of one of the modern era's most beloved icons, Anthony Bourdain.

Provincetown in 1975. A kid from New Jersey crashes into the heat of a kitchen alongside a renegade crew of cooks, pirates, and degenerates - restless, reckless, and hungry for something he couldn't yet name. TONY is a raw portrait of a young man becoming someone the world would never forget.

The film stars Dominic Sessa (The Holdovers), Emilia Jones (CODA), Dagmara Domińczyk (Succession), Rich Sommer (Mad Men), Stavros Halkias (Bugonia), with Leo Woodall (Bridget Jones: Mad About The Boy) and Antonio Banderas (Babygirl).

In UK and Irish cinemas on August 14, 2026.
