George Clooney and Adam Sandler lead an A-list cast in Noah Baumbach's heartfelt comedy about a movie star on a soul-searching road trip with his devoted agent.
In his most captivating film role in years, George Clooney is cast—fittingly—as the last great movie star. Jay Kelly is at a crisis point: uninspired by his work, reeling from the loss of his mentor, and tormented by a run-in with a haunting figure from his past, he does the unthinkable. He backs out of a big new production at the 11th hour in order to run off to Europe and catch up with his college-bound daughter in France before attending a career tribute in Italy. Unable to entirely shed his Hollywood skin, he finds himself trailed by his entourage, including his long-suffering manager (a spectacular Adam Sandler).
Noah Baumbach (Marriage Story) and co-writer Emily Mortimer walk a delicate balance between industry parody and heartfelt sentiment, supported by an all-star ensemble cast also includes Laura Dern, Billy Crudup, Riley Keough, Jim Broadbent, Patrick Wilson, Greta Gerwig, Emily Mortimer and Isla Fisher.
