The Fundamentals of Caring is the latest feature-length film offering from Netflix.
Netflix keep the momentum going with pulling in the A-listers as Paul Rudd and Selena Gomez sign up to The Fundamentals of Caring.
Ben (Paul Rudd) is a retired writer feeling unispired after a personal tragedy. Stuck in a rut, Ben decides to give caregiving a go. After 6 weeks of basic training Ben is thrown into the world of Trevor, an 18 year old who suffers with muscular dystrophy. An unlikely pairing, they eventually bring out the best in one another and follow on Trevor's journey to visit the unconventional places that have fascinated him like the World's Deepest Pit. They manage to pick up teenage troublemaker Selena Gomez on the way and we're sure that The Fundamentals of Caring will all pan out to be something lovely and fluffy and easy to watch.
Also starring Craig Roberts, Jennifer Ehle and Frederick Weller, The Fundamentals of Caring is directed by Rob Burnett as an adaptation of Jonathan Evison's novel.
It will land on Netflix on June 24.
