Amazon Studios has returned the domestic rights to film A Rainy Day in New York back to its director and producer Woody Allen. Amazon Studios had shelved the film indefinitely after allegations of sexual abuse against Allen grabbed attention in the wake of the #MeToo movement. Now, Amazon has returned the rights to Allen, reports variety.com. Allen caused widespread confusion last week when he released a trailer for his Elle Fanning and Timothee Chalamet-starring drama on his Facebook page, saying it was “coming soon.”
