Paul Rudd & Tim Robinson Find Friendship In First Trailer For New Comedy

Two men try to form a friendship

A24 (via Deadline) has today released the first trailer for its upcoming comedy Friendship, which you can watch below!

Andrew DeYoung makes his directorial debut from his self-penned script with Paul Rudd and Tim Robinson headlining the film, which ย is described by Deadline as follows;

“…follows Craig Waterman (Robinson), who enjoys his life. He likes New Balance shoes, Subway sandwiches, and Marvel movies. He lives in the suburbs with his wife, Tami (Kate Mara), and son, Steven (Jack Dylan Grazer). Heโ€™s happy to work at Universal Digital, a company that helps brands make their products more habit-forming. Craig sees no reason to change anything or make new friendsโ€ฆ until weatherman Austin (Rudd) moves into the neighborhood. Mysterious yet friendly, macho but vulnerable, Austin transforms everything for Craig, but Craigโ€™s obsessive and childlike nature threatens to ruin the friendship, and possibly everything else in his life.”

Robinson will be familiar to some audiences for his work on Saturday Night Live, as well as turns in An American Pickle and voicing “Ugly Sonic” in Chip ‘n Dale: Rescue Rangers. Rudd, meanwhile, has a busy 2025, with another A24 film, Death of a Unicorn, due for release soon, as well as John Carney’s anticipated new film Power Ballad. He is currently shooting Anaconda with Jack Black, and is no doubt due to start work on Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars very soon, although he is unconfirmed to return as Scott Lang/Ant-Man right now.

Friendship first premiered at last year’s Toronto Film Festival in its Midnight Madness section and was met with great acclaim.ย It is due for release in the US in May.
