The Line is a 2023 American coming-of-age drama film directed by Ethan Berger in his feature directorial debut, from a screenplay by Berger, Alex Russek, and Zack Purdo. Starring Alex Wolff, Lewis Pullman, Halle Bailey, Austin Abrams, Angus Cloud, Bo Mitchell, Denise Richards, Cheri Oteri, Scoot McNairy, and John Malkovich, the film follows several students at Sumpter College who pledge to become members of the prestigious Kappa Nu Alpha fraternity, led by charismatic president Todd Stevens (Pullman). Sophomore student Tom Backster (Wolff) begins questioning their strict adherence to tradition as he comes into conflict with his best friend Mitch Miller (Mitchell) and his unyielding loyalty to the fraternity, leading to consequences for everyone involved.
Principal photography began in Norman, Oklahoma on January 12, 2022, and concluded on February 3, with most of the film shot on location at the University of Oklahoma.
The Line premiered at the Tribeca Festival on June 9, 2023, and was theatrically released in the United States on November 8, 2024, to positive reviews, with particular praise for Wolff's performance. This was the last film to be released during Angus Cloud's lifetime, who died one month following the film's premiere.
