What This Trailer Means For Fountain Of Youth
The Movie Has A Timeless Feel
Plot-wise, Fountain of Youth engages in an age-old adventure plot. The search for immortality has been chronicled in numerous other films and TV shows, including Jungle Cruise and Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides. This content could give the film a timeless feel, but the trailer suggests that the movie further leans into this by creating a conventional adventure plot. On the other hand, this also marks the first collaboration between Portman and Krasinski, while González portrays the key adversary to the siblings.
Fountain of Youth is rated PG-13, so it is an adventure that the whole family will be able to enjoy. The trailer also reveals that it is a story fitting for the family since there is an undercurrent of sibling tension. The quest for the Fountain of Youth is not just the lead characters’ ticket to immortality, but it’s their path to bonding and restoring their relationship in their adult years. The Fountain of Youth trailer suggests that the film will attempt to straddle both issues.
Our Take On The Fountain Of Youth Trailer
González Is Working With Ritchie Again
While Portman and Krasinski are the leads in this film, Fountain of Youth is yet another stop in the right direction in González’s career. The actor has worked with another major streamer, playing a part in the Netflix series 3 Body Problem. Fountain of Youth will see her re-team with Ritchie, with whom she previously worked on last year’s The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare. This will further cement her as a star to watch out for, giving her more exposure in a role that looks to be a fun part.
