New comedy/drama Rental Family has Brendan Fraser as an American actor in Tokyo. One struggling to find purpose, until he lands an unusual gig.

I’m not surprised this movie exists, especially after watching The Japanese Man Who Gets Paid to Do Nothing.

I’m watching to see the positive impact Fraser’s character will have on those who hire him. Can you imagine yourself in such a role?

Directed and co-written by Hikari, additional key cast includes Mari Yamamoto, Takehiro Hira, Nihi, Paolo Andrea Di Pietro and Akira Emoto.

Rental Family Release Dates: November 21st, 2025 (2025); January 9th, 2026 (UK)…

Happy Film Loving,
