The trailer for the upcoming drama Ben Is Back, which is set to debut at next month’s Toronto International Film festival, has been released online. Lucas Hedges, Courtney B. Vance and Kathryn Newton are also amongst the cast of the film, which actually has a release Stateside – December 7th. As far as we can see, it is still awaiting a UK release.
19-year-old Ben Burns (Lucas Hedges) unexpectedly returns home to his family’s suburban home on Christmas Eve morning. Ben’s mother, Holly (Julia Roberts), is relieved and welcoming but wary of her son staying clean. Over a turbulent 24 hours, new truths are revealed, and a mother’s undying love for her son is tested as she does everything in her power to keep him safe.
We’ll have more as TIFF approaches, but for now, check out the debut trailer from U.S. distributors LD Entertainment and Roadside Attractions.
