Brad (Ferrell) is a nerdy, uptight step-father to his wife’s (Linda Cardellini) kids, and whilst he loves it, they completely hate him. When their real father Dusty (Mark Wahlberg) re-enters their lives, he competes with Brad for the affection of the children. Hilarity ensues. Apparently.
In all honesty, there’s nothing particularly funny about this trailer (Not unlike a lot of Ferrell’s recent films), but we should keep a little bit of hope. After all, Ferrell and Wahlberg’s chemistry was one of the best things about The Other Guys so hopefully that can save this picture. Not to mention it’s from the team behind We’re The Millers and Hot Tub Time Machine, two great comedies from recent years. Hopefully, we’re in for a decent comedy.
Daddy’s Home is out 25th December.
