THE FUNDAMENTALS OF CARING Trailer: Paul Rudd, Craig Roberts, and Selena Gomez Hit The Road
Netflix has released a new trailer for The Fundamentals of Caring, the upcoming road trip comedy starring Paul Rudd, Craig Roberts, and Selena Gomez. It looks like a nice little indie project with a good mixture of humor and heart, and that cast is solid enough that even if the story ends up being lackluster, they'll be able to elevate it with the charm factor.
The film hits the streaming service this Friday, June 24.
The Fundamentals of Caring follows Ben, a retired writer who becomes a caregiver after suffering a personal tragedy. After 6 weeks of training, Ben meets his first client, Trevor, a foul-mouthed 18-year-old with muscular dystrophy. One paralyzed emotionally, one paralyzed physically, Ben and Trevor take an impromptu road trip to all the places Trevor has become obsessed with while watching the local news, including their holy grail: the World's Deepest Pit. Along the way, they pick up a sassy runaway and a mother-to-be who help test the pair’s survival skills outside of their calculated existence as they come to understand the importance of hope and true friendship.
