What is Zac Efron’s new Netflix film ‘A Family Affair’ about?

Zac Efron has a brand new film out via Netflix, called A Family Affair. So what’s it all about?

In A Family Affair, a surprising romance kicks off comic consequences for a young woman (Joey King), her mother (Nicole Kidman) and her movie star boss (Zac Efron) as they face the complications of love, sex, and identity.

The film is directed by Richard Lagravenese and written by Carrie Solomon.

“Zara is a really hard role to play,” Solomon told Tadum. “This is a character that could so easily become cloying and whiny, and seem so privileged. And yet, she is so lovable and earnest and trying so hard just to grow up. Joey gives great one-liners and she gives an enormous amount of emotion. She completely brought this girl to life.”

Kidman and Efron previously costarred in The Paperboy, and have a long-running rapport. “We talked on the phone about this film,” Kidman said. “And we both said, ‘But I only want to do it with you.’ And when that gets said, you go, ‘OK, well then, this is kind of kismet, so that means we're in a good place.’ “
