Bust Out a Box of Tissues, There's A New Trailer For A BEAUTIFUL DAY IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD
I've gotta admit, I miss Fred Rogers and his influence on the world. He was a one of kind person who was always striving to make a difference in this world and change people’s lives for the better. We live in a day and age where we need a person like Mr. Rogers now more than ever.
Thankfully, his legacy lives on and there have been projects in development that have reminded us of the kindness and love that Mr. Rogers brought into this world. One of the upcoming projects that has been made is a feature film called A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood, which stars Tom Hanks in the role of Fred Rogers.
We have a new trailer to share with you today, and like the previously trailers that have come before, this one brings out the emotions, so get yourself a box of tissues before you watch it!
A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood “is a timely story of kindness triumphing over cynicism, based on the true story of a real-life friendship between Fred Rogers and journalist Tom Junod. After a jaded magazine writer (Emmy winner Matthew Rhys) is assigned a profile of Fred Rogers, he overcomes his skepticism, learning about kindness, love and forgiveness from America’s most beloved neighbor.”
The movie also stars Matthew Rhys (The Americans), Chris Cooper (American Beauty), Susan Kelechi Watson (This is Us), and many more. In the story, “a cynical journalist begrudgingly accepts an assignment to write a profile piece on the beloved icon and finds his perspective on life transformed.” You can read the piece Junod wrote here.
The movie is being directed by Marielle Heller (Diary of a Teenage Girl) from a script written by Micah Fitzerman-Blue and Noah Harpster. The movie is set to be released on November 22, 2019.
