Rental Family
"Rental Family" is a 2025 comedy-drama film directed by Hikari, who co-wrote it with Stephen Blahut.
Set against modern-day Tokyo, "Rental Family" follows an American actor, played by Brendan Fraser, who struggles to find purpose until he lands an unusual gig: working for a Japanese "rental family" agency, playing stand-in roles for strangers. As he immerses himself in his clients' worlds, he begins to form genuine bonds that blur the lines between performance and reality. Confronting the moral complexities of his work, he rediscovers purpose, belonging, and the quiet beauty of human connection.
An international co-production between the United States and Japan, "Rental Family" premiered at the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival. It received positive reviews from critics, who singled out Fraser's performance. The National Board of Review included it on its list of the year's top 10 films.
