A Family Affair: Release date, cast and latest news for Zac Efron and Nicole Kidman comedy

Netflix recently confirmed the film’s release date, alongside several exciting stills of the films, which give fans a glimpse of Efron, Kidman and King’s characters in various awkward situations, including what looks like Chris and Zara’s mother on a date (below).

In another image, Zara can be seen holding an ice pack to her eye (above).

"The interplay between Joey and Zac’s characters as an assistant and star is so much fun," director Richard LaGravenese (The Last Five Years) previously told PEOPLE Magazine about the film.

"I also love the mother-daughter role reversal, where the daughter becomes the disapproving, judgmental, suspicious parent and the mother is sneaking around her back having a love affair that makes her feel like she’s come back to life."

Meanwhile, Efron said of his role, "I was still a bit apprehensive, but reuniting with Nicole is always so great, and as talented as she as an actress, she is equally kind, caring and wonderful to spend time with," before going on to tease that their chemistry is "seamless, natural and fun".

So, when can you expect the film to land on Netflix? Read on for everything you need to know.
