Daddy's Home

ComedyFamily96 min

A mild-mannered radio executive throws himself into being the ideal stepdad to his wife’s two children, only to have that new family balance disrupted when the kids’ biological father suddenly reappears. Will Ferrell’s overprepared, approval-seeking stepdad finds himself in an escalating rivalry with Mark Wahlberg’s charismatic ex, whose arrival turns school events, household routines, and even basic parenting into a contest. Linda Cardellini is the mother stuck between them as both men angle for the children’s attention, with the story centering on the awkward overlap between blended-family goodwill and one-upmanship.
