Charming Trailer For The Family Comedy SAM & KATE Starring Dustin Hoffman and Sissy Spacek
Vertical Entertainment has released a trailer for a new family comedy titled Sam & Kate, which stars Oscar winners Dustin Hoffman and Sissy Spacek. This looks like a charming film that is described as a "life-affirming family dramedy."
The film is directed by Darren Le Gallo, who is making his directorial debut, and the film also stars Jake Hoffman (Dustin Hoffman’s real son) and Schuyler Fish (Sissy Spacek’s real daughter).
Sam & Kate takes place in a small town in the heart of the country. “Hoffman plays Bill, the larger-than-life father to Sam (Hoffman), who has returned home to take care of his ailing dad. While home, Sam falls for a local woman, Kate (Fisk). And at the same time, Bill starts to fall for her mom, Tina (Spacek). But finding love is complicated and for these four, it is no different. They all must confront their past in order to make their new love work for the future.”
Starring Oscar winners Dustin Hoffman and Sissy Spacek - truly a family affair, art imitates life with the father / son casting of Dustin & Jake Hoffman and the mother / daughter casting of Sissy & Schuyler Fisk. When Sam (the younger Hoffman) returns to his small town to care for his ailing father, he soon finds himself falling for a local woman, Kate. Simultaneously, his father begins finding love with Kate's mother. But both couples must confront their past in order to make their new love work for the future. The cast also includes Henry Thomas, Tyler Labine, Elizabeth Faith Ludlow, Dylan McNamara, and Elizabeth Becka. This looks sweet and fun, but also a film you'll forget as soon as it's over.
Sam & Kate will be released in select theaters starting November 11th, 2022.
