The Big Sick

I know, there are lots of big blockbuster movies coming out this summer for example, Spiderman: Homecoming. However, I'm also very excited for the smaller movie, The Big Sick! I've heard lots of great things for it too - so, I can not wait to see it. What movie are you excited to see this summer?

CAST STARRING: Kumail Nanjiani, Zoe Kazan, Holly Hunter, and Ray Romano

DIRECTOR: Michael Showalter

PRODUCER: Judd Apatow

SYNOPSIS: THE BIG SICK tells the story of Pakistan-born aspiring comedian Kumail (Nanjiani), who connects with grad student Emily (Kazan) after one of his standup sets. However, what they thought would be just a one-night stand blossoms into the real thing, which complicates the life that is expected of Kumail by his traditional Muslim parents.

When Emily is beset with a mystery illness, it forces Kumail to navigate the medical crisis with her parents, Beth and Terry (Holly Hunter and Ray Romano) who he's never met, while dealing with the emotional tug-of-war between his family and his heart. THE BIG SICK is directed by Michael Showalter (HELLO MY NAME IS DORIS) and produced by Judd Apatow (TRAINWRECK, THIS IS 40) and Barry Mendel (TRAINWRECK, THE ROYAL TENENBAUMS).
