In the future, Adam Reed (Reynolds) is a pilot who is selected for a top-secret mission to travel back in time and team with his 13-year-old self (Scobell) in order to set things right with their late father (Ruffalo), saving the future in the process. However, both old and young Adam must first learn how to cope with each other, and come to terms with their own differences…

Ryan Reynolds reteams with Free Guy director Shawn Levy for a time-travelling adventure that’s almost the polar opposite of last year’s hit action-comedy.
