Adult Beginners is a 2014 American comedy drama film directed by Ross Katz and written by Jeff Cox and Liz Flahire based on a story by Nick Kroll. The film stars Kroll, Rose Byrne, Bobby Cannavale, and Joel McHale.
RADiUS-TWC acquired the North American distribution rights of the film during its premiere at the 2014 Toronto International Film Festival. The film was released in a limited release in theatres and VOD on April 24, 2015.
After his company crashes and burns on the eve of its big launch, hipster entrepreneur Jake (Kroll) moves in with his estranged pregnant sister, Justine (Byrne), brother-in-law, Danny (Cannavale), and three year-old nephew in the suburbs where he is faced with the pressure of real responsibility.
On November 1, 2013, it was announced that Nick Kroll, Rose Byrne, and Bobby Cannavale were attached to star in Brother's Keeper - the original title which later changed to Adult Beginners. On December 10, 2013, Caitlin Fitzgerald has been cast as Kat, Jake's girlfriend "who dumps him after his tech startup fails and he moves back to his family home."
This film marks the third onscreen appearance of actual couple Bobby Cannavale and Rose Byrne after having both appeared in Annie in 2014 and Spy earlier in 2015.
Principal photography took place in New York including a house on Elk Avenue in New Rochelle, New York for a month in January and February 2014.
