Sony is shifting its Nate Bargatze family comedy The Breadwinner from March 13 to May 29, 2026. Summer break commences around that time, so it’s an optimal time to get families.
The Breadwinner leaves behind Universal’s feature take of the Colleen Hoover novel Reminders of Him on that date as well as A24’s undertone among the notable wide entries.
On its new weekend in the post-Memorial Day frame, The Breadwinner goes up against Paramount’s André Øvredal-horror movie Passenger, Focus Features’ Andrew Scott and Brendan Fraser movie Pressure, an untitled A24 horror movie, as well as Black Bear’s Dustin Hoffman-Leo Woodall crime movie Tuner.
Eric Appel directs The Breadwinner, which follows a breadwinner husband (played by stand-up Bargatze) who switches roles with his wife (Mandy Moore) after she lands a Shark Tank deal. He struggles to adapt as a stay-at-home dad to their three daughters. Bargatze co-wrote with Dan Lagana. Will Forte and Kumail Nanjiani also star.
Watch on Deadline
Producers on The Breadwinner are Bargatze, Lagana and Jeremy Latcham. EP is JoAnn Perritano.
He had the most viewed stand-up special of 2025.
