We’re happy to offer our DC area readers the chance to attend a free early screening of Prime Video’s action-comedy Playdate, starring Alan Ritchson and Kevin James! Directed by Luke Greenfield, the film also stars Sarah Chalke, Alan Tudyk, Benjamin Pajak, Banks Pierce, Hiro Kanagawa, with Stephen Root and Isla Fisher.
Synopsis: When recently unemployed accountant Brian (Kevin James) agrees to a playdate with charismatic stay-at-home dad Jeff (Alan Ritchson) and their sons, he expects an easy afternoon of small talk and football tossing. Instead, he’s thrust into a chaotic scramble to stay alive as they are pursued by a ruthless team of mercenaries. Brian stumbles through one ridiculous obstacle after another, his zero tactical skills a stark contrast to Jeff’s oddly prepared demeanor. Director Luke Greenfield (Let’s Be Cops, The Girl Next Door) hilariously collides suburban dad life with high-stakes thrills, transforming an ordinary afternoon into an absurd action-packed adventure where minivan mayhem meets professional hitmen.
The screening takes place on Thursday, November 6th at 7:00pm at AMC Georgetown. If you’d like to attend, RSVP at the Amazon site here. Please remember, all screenings are first come first served and you’ll need to arrive early to ensure seating. Enjoy the show!
