First Official Trailer for Hikari's 'Rental Family' Starring Brendan Fraser

"What I'm offering here is a chance to play roles with a real meaning." Searchlight Pictures has unveiled the official trailer for a sentimental and heartfelt new film titled Rental Family, the latest feature from the filmmaker known as "Hikari" who also directed episodes of the hit series "Beef" & also the film 37 Seconds. Rental Family is premiering at the 2025 Toronto Film Festival and will open in US theaters in November this fall. Discover the joy of unexpected connections. A lonely American actor living in Tokyo starts working for a Japanese "rental family" company to play stand-in roles in other people's lives. Along the way, he finds surprising connections and unexpected joys within his built-in family. This stars Oscar winner Brendan Fraser, along with Takehiro Hira, Mari Yamamoto, Shannon Gorman, and Akira Emoto. This is seemingly inspired by the Werner Herzog's film Family Romance, LLC (from 2020) which is also about real rental "people" that stand in as friends or family – this service actually exists in Japan for real. Would you hire him? Well I'm in – this looks really good! Super sweet, extra cute and amusing, I'm ready to watch now. // Continue Reading ›
