Hulu Acquires Holiday Comedy ‘Nutcrackers’ Starring Ben Stiller
Hulu has acquired the worldwide rights for 'Nutcrackers," a new holiday comedy starring Ben Stiller and directed by David Gordon Green.
“‘Nutcrackers’ is a heartfelt comedy which follows strait-laced and work-obsessed Mike (Stiller) as he is suddenly thrust into being a caregiver for his rambunctious, orphaned nephews,” the film’s logline teases. In addition to Stiller, the cast also includes Linda Cardellini (“No Good Deed,” “Dead to Me”), Edi Patterson (“The Righteous Gemstones”), Tim Heidecker (“Us”), and Toby Huss (“Dickinson”). In its review at TIFF, Indiewire wrote, “It’s refreshing to see Green doing whatever he likes, combining some of his favorite elements (talented kids, keen comedic timing, a country setting, and a genuine warmth that’s hard to fake) to make a new film that feels as good for his soul as the audience’s.”
