A new trailer has just landed for the upcoming Mr. Church, a film which will see Eddie Murphy return to the screen in a serious role as the title character, the talented cook Henry Joseph Church. Here’s the plot.
Set 1965 Los Angeles, Mr. Church begins with a stranger arriving on the doorstep of 10-year-old CHARLOTTE “CHARLIE” BRODY and her single mother MARIE BRODY, who is battling breast cancer. They soon learn that the quiet man, HENRY CHURCH, has been hired by Marie’s recently deceased former lover to cook for them and help maintain the household. As Mr. Church’s time with the Brodys extends from months into years, he becomes a father figure for Charlie during her formative years, nurturing her love of literature and making a lasting impact on her life. Even as Mr. Church tries to keep his own life separate from the Brodys, he eventually learns that the connection he feels to Charlie is what family is all about.
Britt Robertson, Natascha McElhone, Xavier Samuel, Lucy Fry, Christian Madsen and McKenna Grace also star in the film, which hits US cinemas on September 16th. It is still awaiting a UK release.
Here’s the new trailer.
