Woody Allen’s latest endeavor, his 50th film titled “Coup de Chance,” is slated for release in U.S. theaters. MPI Media Group has announced the film’s North American theatrical release on April 5, followed by a digital and Video On Demand release on April 12.

Premiering initially at the Venice Film Festival last September, “Coup de Chance” elicited a mixed reception, with protests and a notable standing ovation lasting two and a half minutes.
