Paramount Moves Up Release of INSTANT FAMILY, Starring Rose Byrne and Mark Wahlberg

Paramount decided to move forward the release date of the Mark Wahlberg-Rose Byrne comedy INSTANT FAMILY, according to Variety. The film will now be released three months earlier than scheduled, on November 16th. Now set for a holiday release, it was previously set for February 15, 2019.

Paramount wants to take advantage of the Thanksgiving holiday and play to families throughout the season, after the studio saw strong responses from test screenings.

INSTANT FAMILY also stars Octavia Spencer, Isabela Moner, Tig Notaro, Iliza Shlesinger, and Tom Segura. Wahlberg and Byrne play a couple who decides to start a family and adopt through the foster-care system, only to find themselves raising three wild kids who have no interest in being parented.

The movie is inspired by the real events from the life of writer/director Sean Anders. Anders is directing from a script he wrote with John Morris.

Anders and Wahlberg worked together previously on the DADDY'S HOME films.
