Article Summary

  • John Krasinski and Cailey Fleming reveal the essence of 'IF'.

Did you have an imaginary friend when you were a kid? Do you remember who they were or what they looked like before you moved on from that part of your life? That friend being real is the entire premise of the upcoming IF from Paramount Pictures. It features a massive voice cast for all of the imaginary friends, but if you were a little lost about what this is, writer and director John Krasinski and star Cailey Fleming are on hand to catch you up. Also, for all of you fans of The Office, this fan is also reuniting Krasinski with one of his costars from the film, Steve Carell. That kind of reunion is always cute to see, so we got a nice little video showing the two of them seeing each other for the first time. We also get to see Carell running some of his lines with Kransinki laughing as they go along. Early box office reports for IF are looking pretty positive, but May is packed with a ton of big releases, so we'll have to see how this one does.
