“Netflix’s Heart-Wrenching New Drama with George Clooney and Adam Sandler — More Bittersweet Than The Descendants, More Soul-Stirring Than A Star Is Born, This European Journey Will Break Your Heart and Heal It All at Once — Viewers Are Already Calling It ‘A Masterpiece’ They’ll Never Forget”!This autumn, Netflix brings together George Clooney and Adam Sandler in a moving, unexpected masterpiece that blends the aching poignancy of The Descendants with the emotional resonance of A Star Is Born. Following a world-famous movie star and his devoted manager on a whirlwind trip across Europe, the film slowly peels back the glamour to reveal a raw, deeply human story about friendship, love, regret, and the legacies we leave behind. As laughter mixes with heartbreak, every stop on their journey forces them to confront old wounds, rekindle lost connections, and face the truths they’ve avoided for years. Beautifully shot, exquisitely acted, and emotionally devastating, this is the kind of film you’ll carry with you long after the screen fades to black.

Netflix has unveiled the trailer for its “heartbreaking” new comedy-drama film, Jay Kelly, and I will certainly be adding it to my autumn watchlist.

George Clooney stars in the film as the titular famous movie actor, who, along with his devoted manager Ron (Adam Sandler), embarks on a “whirlwind and unexpectedly profound journey through Europe”.

The synopsis continues: “Along the way, both men are forced to confront the choices they’ve made, the relationships with their loved ones, and the legacies they’ll leave behind.”

The film, which comes from Oscar-nominated filmmaker Noah Baumbach, boasts a seriously impressive cast, including the likes of Laura Dern (Marriage Story, Little Women), Riley Keough (Zola, Daisy Jones & the Six) and Jim Broadbent (Gangs of New York, Bridget Jones’s Diary).

Jay Kelly arrives in cinemas on November 14 and on Netflix on December 5.
