About a Boy

Growing up has nothing to do with age.

A warm, character-driven comedy about an irresponsible bachelor and a geeky boy who teach each other what it means to grow up, built on genuine affection and mutual transformation.

Will Freeman is a good-looking, smooth-talking bachelor whose primary goal in life is avoiding any kind of responsibility. But when he invents an imaginary son in order to meet attractive single moms, Will gets a hilarious lesson about life from a bright, but hopelessly geeky 12-year-old named Marcus. Now, as Will struggles to teach Marcus the art of being cool, Marcus teaches Will that you're never too old to grow up.
