Stanley Tucci and Danny Webb also star. “I'm very proud of the fact that ‘A Little Chaos’ found its North American home during its World Premiere at TIFF,” Rickman said. “It's encouraging to see that the film resonated with both audiences and the industry in Toronto, and I'm excited for its release next spring.” Focus Features will release “A Little Chaos” in North America on March 27, 2015.
