MANILA, Philippines - Warner Bros. Pictures' new dramatic comedy “This is Where I Leave You,†directed by Shawn Levy, and based on the hilarious and poignant best-selling novel by Jonathan Tropper, has just unreeled its first trailer.
The film features a starring ensemble cast including Golden Globe winner Jason Bateman (“Arrested Developmentâ€); Golden Globe and Emmy Award winner Tina Fey (“30 Rockâ€); and two-time Oscar® winner, multiple Golden Globe honoree and 2013 Emmy Award nominee Jane Fonda (“Klute,†“Coming Home,†HBO’s “The Newsroomâ€).
When their father passes away, four grown siblings, bruised and banged up by their respective adult lives, are forced to return to their childhood home and live under the same roof together for a week, along with their over-sharing mother and an assortment of spouses, exes and might-have-beens. Confronting their history and the frayed states of their relationships among the people who know and love them best, they ultimately reconnect in hysterical and emotionally affecting ways amid the chaos, humor, heartache and redemption that only families can provide—driving us insane even as they remind us of our truest, and often best, selves.
Levy, who helmed the blockbuster “Night at the Museum†films, as well as “Date Night†and “Real Steel,†directs from a screenplay by Jonathan Tropper.
The film also stars Adam Driver (HBO’s “Girls,†upcoming “Star Wars: Episode VIIâ€), Rose Byrne (“Bridesmaids,†“X-Men: First Classâ€), Corey Stoll (“Midnight in Parisâ€) and Kathryn Hahn (“We're the Millersâ€).
Opening across the Philippines on Oct. 08, 2014, “This is Where I Leave You†will be distributed worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures, a Warner Bros. Entertainment company.
