No one can embarrass you like your parents. They often mean well, but it’s difficult not to dread every word out of their mouths, especially when they’re interacting with members of your extended circle. In Lionsgate‘s About My Father trailer, stand-up comic Sebastian Maniscalco and Robert De Niro play a father and son duo who venture outside their comfort zone to interact with extended family members they barely understand.
Laura Terruso directs from a script co-written by Maniscalco and Austen Earl. The story is about Sebastian (Maniscalco) bringing his immigrant hairdresser dad Salvo (De Niro), to a weekend-long getaway to meet his fiancée’s (Leslie Bibb) wealthy and eccentric family. The two groups quickly realize they’re from opposite sides of the track, leading to hilarity, awkward exchanges, and a dead peacock.
Speaking with People, Maniscalco says the plot was inspired by his experience meeting his now-wife Lana Gomez’s family.
