Max has announced that the Max Original horror comedy “The Parenting” will arrive on the streaming platform on March 13, 2025.
Directed by Craig Johnson (“The Skeleton Twins”) and written by “Saturday Night Live” writer Kent Sublette, “The Parenting” follows young couple Rohan and Josh as they plan a perfect weekend getaway in the country to introduce their parents. As tensions begin to flare between the more traditional Sharon and Frank and the laid-back Liddy and Cliff, the families soon realize that their rental – managed by eccentric local Brenda – is haunted by the presence of a 400-year-old poltergeist. When one parent becomes thoroughly possessed, it’s up to the young couple and their meddlesome BFF Sara to unite the families and stop the evil entity once and for all.
The film features an all-star cast that includes Nik Dodani (“Atypical”), Brandon Flynn (“Hellraiser”), Brian Cox (“Succession”), Edie Falco (“The Sopranos”), Lisa Kudrow (“Friends”), Dean Norris (“Breaking Bad”), Parker Posey (“Scream 3”), and Vivian Bang (“Always Be My Maybe”).
“The Parenting” is produced by produced by Chris Bender and Jake Weiner, with executive producers Richard Brener, Chris Pan, David Neustadter, and Jared Ian Goldman.
