Paul Rudd, Ray Romano attend ‘Fundamentals of Caring’ premiere in Los Angeles

LOS ANGELES, June 24 (UPI) — Paul Rudd, Craig Roberts, Megan Ferguson and Ray Romano attended the Los Angeles premiere of Netflix’s adaptation of Jonathan Evison’s novel The Fundamentals of Caring on Thursday night.

Now streaming via the subscription service, the movie was written, directed and produced by Rob Burnett. It stars Rudd, Roberts, Ferguson, Selena Gomez, Jennifer Ehle and Frederick Weller.

“The film follows the story of Ben, a retired writer who becomes a caregiver after suffering a personal tragedy,” a synopsis said.

“After six weeks of training, Ben meets his first client, Trevor, a foul-mouthed, 18-year-old with muscular dystrophy. One paralyzed emotionally, one paralyzed physically, Ben and Trevor take an impromptu road trip to all the places Trevor has become obsessed with while watching the local news, including their holy grail: the World’s Deepest Pit. Along the way, they pick up a smart-mouthed runaway and a mother-to-be who help test the pair’s survival skills outside of their calculated existence as they come to understand the importance of hope and true friendship.”
