Arriving slightly later than planned thanks to Felicity Huffman's "issues" earlier in the year, the Netflix comedy Otherhood is finally about to see the light of day. Huffman stars with Angela Bassett and Patricia Arquette in the film, directed by Sex & The City's Cindy Chupack. Here's the trailer.
Otherhood is adapted from William Sutcliffe's 2009 novel Whatever Makes You Happy. Having spent a cardless Mother's Day discussing how their emotionally dysfunctional offspring should be settling down, suburban moms Carol (Bassett), Gillian (Arquette) and Helen (Huffman) have decided to pay their New York-dwelling sons an unannounced visit. Their plan is to reestablish the mother-son bond by moving in for a single week. But it turns out that might be a lot to ask...
Jake Hoffman, Sinqua Walls and Jake Lacy play the sons, and Chupack wrote the screenplay with Mark Andrus (And So It Goes). Cathy Schulman (no stranger to Bad Moms) produced under her Welle Entertainment banner.
Otherhood arrives on Netflix on August 2. Sutcliffe's novel is published in the UK by Bloomsbury.
