Warner Bros. Discovery announced the film as a Max Original, with a debut date of March 13, 2025.
What is The Parenting about?
Rohan and Josh plan a country-weekend getaway so their parents can meet. The families soon find that the rental is haunted by a 400-year-old poltergeist. Warner Bros. Discovery describes the film as “A hilariously terrifying comedy”; that is the studio’s logline, rather than a quotation from an individual reviewer or cast member. Read the studio announcement.
