New in the acclaimed series—the new film starring Hugh Grant and Toni
Collette, adapted from the acclaimed novel by Nick Hornby (High
Fidelity). Coming from Universal Pictures in April 2002, produced by
Tribeca Productions and Working Title Films. Based on Nick Hornby's
popular novel, About A Boy is a comedy-drama starring Hugh Grant as
Will, a rich, child-free and irresponsible Londoner in his thirties
who, in search of available women, invents an imaginary son and
starts attending single parent meetings. As a result of one of his
liaisons, he meets Marcus, an odd 12-year-old boy with problems at
school. Gradually, Will and Marcus become friends, and as Will
teaches Marcus how to be a cool kid, Marcus helps Will to finally
grow up. The cast also includes Toni Collette (Sixth Sense, Shaft),
Rachel Weisz (The Mummy Returns, Sunshine), and Nicholas Hoult. 20
