Date Night
One ordinary couple. One little white lie.
Directed by Shawn Levy
Produced by Dune Entertainment, 21 Laps Entertainment
A lighthearted action-comedy about a married couple rekindling their spark through mistaken-identity chaos and escalating danger in New York City.
Phil and Claire Foster fear that their mild-mannered relationship may be falling into a stale rut. During their weekly date night, their dinner reservation leads to their being mistaken for a couple of thieves—and now a number of unsavoury characters want Phil and Claire killed.
