Friendship (2024)

In Friendship, suburban dad Craig falls hard for his charismatic new neighbour Austin, as Craig’s attempts to make an adult male friend threaten to ruin both their lives.

Three-time Emmy winner Tim Robinson (I Think You Should Leave with Tim Robinson, The Chair Company) and Paul Rudd, named People’s Sexiest Man Alive in 2021, co-star as Craig and Austin. Also look out for Emmy nominee Kate Mara and Jack Dylan Grazer (It).

GQ calls this “awkward, hilarious man-crush comedy” both “deeply poignant” and “one of the funniest things I've ever seen in my entire life.” 

The feature-film debut of Emmy-nominated writer-director Andrew DeYoung (The Chair Company), Friendship was up for Best Comedy at the 2026 Critics’ Choice Awards and Best Screenplay at the 2026 Independent Spirit Awards.
