This article covers the trailer for the upcoming dramedy Rental Family, starring Brendan Fraser.

The film's premise centers on Fraser's character, a down-on-his-luck American actor living in Tokyo who gets a job at a company where people can be hired to play family members. He is rented by a Japanese woman to serve as an "American father figure" for her young daughter.

As shown in the trailer, what starts as a strange but simple acting gig quickly becomes more complicated. The professional lines blur as Fraser's character forms a genuine emotional bond with the family, leading to both funny and heartfelt moments as he gets more deeply involved in their lives than the job requires.

The film is directed by Hikari (37 Seconds) and is based on the real-life phenomenon of rental families in Japan. It is set to have its world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival.
