No word on whether any of Saturday’s action at the Nat will make the flick.

The Best Is Yet To Come is based on a 2019 French film. According to a May report from Deadline, Broderick and Ruck play “best friends who, through a colossal misunderstanding that creates a ticking clock, hop in a car to find the estranged son of one of them and also try to do all the things that life has prevented them from doing.”
