McConaughey recently said that “How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days” is the movie that pays him the most in residuals—the ongoing “mailbox money” he receives from the film being shown, streamed, and rented.

Despite the Venice launch, “Company” has so far failed to land a berth at any of the major North American fall festivals. It was not announced by Toronto, Telluride or the New York Film Festival.
