The independent film Buried starring Ryan Reynolds was just picked up by Lionsgate for theatrical release.

Following a highly successful late-night screening on Saturday at Sundance, the Ryan Reynolds trapped-in-a-box thriller “Buried” was sold to Lionsgate.

The deal is said to be worth a pricey $3-4 million plus a significant marketing commitment, the mini-major beating out interest expressed by several other distributors.

This movie is certainly going to have an audience, but I’m wondering how much a real full trailer will show in terms of story. All we’ve seen so far could have been shot in somebody’s basement.
