It seems to be Bryan Cranston day here on The Hollywood News today. Here’s a red band trailer for his upcoming comedy in which he stars opposite James Franco, Why Him? The film opens in UK cinemas early next year.
Over the holidays, Ned (Bryan Cranston), an overprotective but loving dad and his family visit his daughter at Stanford, where he meets his biggest nightmare: her well-meaning but socially awkward Silicon Valley billionaire boyfriend, Laird (James Franco). The straight-laced Ned thinks Laird, who has absolutely no filter, is a wildly inappropriate match for his daughter. The one-sided rivalry—and Ned’s panic level—escalate when he finds himself increasingly out of step in the glamorous high-tech hub, and learns that Laird is about to pop the question.
Why Him? is directed by John Hamburg and produced by Shawn Levy, Ben Stiller, Jonah Hill and Dan Levine. It will open in UK cinemas on January 7th, 2017. Watch the very NSFW trailer below.
