A Family Affair

'A Family Affair' is an American romantic comedy directed by Richard LaGravenese with a screenplay by Carrie Solomon. It is a production for the streaming platform Netflix, which will release it on June 28, 2024. The film stars Nicole Kidman, Zac Efron, Joey King, and Kathy Bates.

Zara (King) works as a personal assistant to Hollywood star Chris Cole (Efron). Fed up with his disrespect, she eventually resigns. Shortly after, Chris goes to Zara's house to apologize and offer her a new position, but he only finds her mother Brooke (Kidman), who works as a writer. When Zara returns home, she finds her mother in bed with Chris.

From there, Chris starts to feel increasingly attracted to Brooke, and they end up having a romantic relationship, much to Zara's dismay, as she cannot stand the idea of seeing her mother with her boss and a successful actor. Meanwhile, Zara has to deal with Chris's professional problems.

Filmed in Atlanta in October 2022, 'A Family Affair' was initially scheduled for release in 2022. However, the director decided to change the ending and had to wait for the Hollywood actors' and writers' strikes to conclude before reshooting some scenes in California, thus delaying its release to June 2024.
