Actor and woodworking enthusiast Nick Offerman has announced the world premiere of his new film “Sovereign” at the upcoming Tribeca Festival while simultaneously declaring a humorous “beef” with his young co-star Jacob Tremblay.
In his Instagram post, Offerman shared his excitement about the film while playfully challenging the Canadian child actor. The image shows a promotional poster or still from the film “Sovereign.”
“I’m powerfully proud of this film from @cswegal and @moceri despite my beef with Canadian marmot whelp @jacobtremblay – when anybody shows up that talented and handsome, I can only take it as an affront. Gauntlet thrown, son,” Offerman wrote with his characteristic dry humor.
Film Premiere Details
The world premiere of “Sovereign” is scheduled for Sunday, June 8, at 8 pm at the SVA Theatre in New York City, as part of the Tribeca Festival. Tickets are available through the Tribeca Film Festival’s official website.
About Jacob Tremblay
For those unfamiliar with the subject of Offerman’s joking rivalry, Jacob Tremblay is a Canadian actor who gained widespread recognition for his breakthrough performance in the critically acclaimed film “Room” (2015). Despite his young age, Tremblay has established himself as one of Hollywood’s most talented child actors, with notable performances in films such as “Wonder,” “Good Boys,” and “Doctor Sleep.”
Offerman’s humorous jab at Tremblay’s talent and good looks is meant as a compliment disguised as mock indignation, suggesting the young actor’s impressive abilities on screen.
Offerman’s Diverse Career
Nick Offerman is best known for his portrayal of the libertarian, government-hating Ron Swanson in the NBC sitcom “Parks and Recreation,” but his career extends far beyond that iconic role. According to his Wikipedia page, Offerman was born on June 26, 1970, and has established himself as an actor, writer, comedian, producer, and professional woodworker.
Beyond acting, Offerman maintains a woodshop in Los Angeles called Offerman Woodshop, where he and his team create handcrafted items from sustainable wood sources. His passion for woodworking is evident in his recent Instagram activities, where he frequently showcases handcrafted items from his shop.
Recent Projects
Offerman has been busy with various projects lately. On April 22, he celebrated Earth Day with a post from Offerman Woodshop, promoting sustainable practices and his fifth book, “Where the Deer and the Antelope Play.” The book explores his relationship with nature through three journeys he undertook in 2019 and 2020.
He’s also currently appearing in the animated series “The Great North,” where he voices the character of Beef Tobin. In a recent Instagram post, he promoted an episode titled “Dial M for Moonder,” showing his continued involvement in voice acting work.
Additionally, Offerman appears to be in the upcoming film “The Life of Chuck,” based on a Stephen King story and directed by Mike Flanagan, scheduled for release in select cities on June 6 and nationwide on June 13.
Personal Life And Performances
Offerman is married to actress Megan Mullally, best known for her role as Karen Walker in the television series “Will & Grace.” The couple frequently performs together, as evidenced by a recent post promoting their show at the Folly Theater in Kansas City.
His woodworking business continues to thrive, with recent posts showcasing Mother’s Day gift options including a Maple & Spalted Sycamore Keepsake Box and handcrafted cards with original art.
As for “Sovereign,” directed by C.S. Wegal and produced by Moceri (as tagged in Offerman’s post), details about the film’s plot remain limited, but Offerman’s enthusiastic endorsement suggests it’s a project he’s particularly proud of. The film’s inclusion in the Tribeca Festival, celebrating its 25th anniversary this year, also indicates it may be a significant addition to the actor’s diverse portfolio of work.
