Stroke of Genius Stars

Chris Evans, Jenny Slate, Octavia Spencer Marc Webb

From the director who brought you one of arguably the best romantic movies of all time (that’d be “(500) Days of Summer”) comes a heartwarming family drama featuring Chris Evans without his Captain America suit. Frank Adler (Evans’ character), who has been taking care of his niece Mary (McKenna Grace) discovers that she is, in fact, a genius in math. Her abilities caught the attention of her grandmother Evelyn (Lindsay Duncan), whose plans for her granddaughter threatens to take Mary away from Adler. Another noteworthy addition to the cast is Jenny Slate who plays Mary’s teacher—she’s actually Evans’ real-life ex-girlfriend.
