“You’re like James Bond in a minivan?” Apple TV has revealed an official trailer for The Family Plan, a big action comedy from the streaming network heading directly to streaming in December at the end of the year. No theatrical release for this one. How’s this for a story we’ve seen so many times before that they’re rehashing once again: A former top assassin living incognito as a suburban dad must take his unsuspecting family on the run when his past catches up to him. Isn’t this similar to Taken or True Lies all over again? Determined to protect his family — while treating them to the vacation of a lifetime — Dan must put his long-dormant skills into action, without revealing his true identity. Mark Wahlberg stars with Michelle Monaghan, Zoe Colletti, Van Crosby, Saïd Taghmaoui, Maggie Q, and Ciarán Hinds as the lead bad guy. Of course this looks super cheesy, but the baby kinda looks hilarious. Don’t know how they got that performance out of him?! Seems like another Vegas road trip comedy more than assassin thriller – have fun.
Here’s the official trailer (+ poster) for Simon Cellan Jones’ The Family Plan, direct from YouTube:
Dan Morgan (Mark Wahlberg) loves his quiet suburban life as a devoted husband, father of three, and a car salesman. But that’s only half the story. Decades earlier, he was an elite government assassin tasked with eliminating the world’s deadliest threats. When enemies from his past track him down, Dan packs his unsuspecting wife, angsty teen daughter, pro-gamer teen son, and their adorable 10-month-old baby into their minivan and takes off on an impromptu cross-country road trip to Las Vegas. Determined to protect his family — while treating them to the vacation of a lifetime — Dan must put his long-dormant skills into action, without revealing his true identity. The Family Plan is directed by the British producer / filmmaker Simon Cellan Jones, director of the films The Big One, Some Voices, The One and Only, On Expenses, plus episodes of the series “Ballers”, “See”, and “The Diplomat” most recently. The screenplay is written by David Coggeshall. Produced by David Ellison, Dana Goldberg, Don Granger, Stephen Levinson, and Mark Wahlberg. Apple debuts The Family Plan streaming directly on Apple TV+ starting December 15th, 2023.
