Netflix Fun Family Art Streaming Book Cast Film Poke Director Car Hope Jennifer garner

With Yes Day now streaming on Netflix, I recently spoke to director Miguel Arteta about making the fun family film. Based on the bestselling children's book Yes Day, written by Amy Krouse Rosenthal and illustrated by Tom Lichtenheld, the film is about a mom (Jennifer Garner) and dad (Edgar Ramírez) who usually say no to everything allowing their kids (Ortega, Julian Lerner, and Everly Carganilla) 24 hours where they have to say yes to their requests. As you might imagine, chaos ensues and lessons are learned. Yes Day also stars Jenna Ortega, Fortune Feimster, Nat Faxon, Arturo Castro, and Molly Sims.
