Playdate movie: Cast, release date, and more on Prime Video

What happens when suburban-dad life collides with high-stakes thrills?

In the upcoming Playdate, when recently unemployed accountant Brian (Kevin James) agrees to a playdate with charismatic stay-at-home dad Jeff (Alan Ritchson of Reacher) and their sons, he expects an easy afternoon of small talk and football tossing. Instead, he’s thrust into a chaotic scramble to stay alive as they are pursued by a ruthless team of mercenaries.
