Why Him? Red Band Trailer
The film also stars Zoey Deutch, Megan Mullally, Griffin Gluck, and Keegan-Michael Key.
“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.”
Directed by John Hamburg and co-written with Ian Helfer.
Produced by Stuart Cornfeld, Dan Levine, Shawn Levy, and Ben Stiller.
Why Him? is scheduled to be released on December 25, 2016.
