New Apple TV+ movie Finch lands on the streaming service this week and the stars were out in force at a Los Angeles showing on Tuesday.
The movie, which follows Hanks' character as he builds a robot to look after his faithful dog, had its LA premiere at the Pacific Design Center in West Hollywood according to a MailOnline report. And yes, the robot was also there to enjoy the event.
Others in attendance included screenwriter and executive producer Craig Luck as well as Matthew Lillard, Cassady McClincy, and Leslie Jones.
Finch has all the hallmarks of an Apple TV+ winner, not least because Tom Hanks is involved. Here's how Apple describes the project:
In "Finch," a man, a robot and a dog form an unlikely family in a powerful and moving adventure of one man's quest to ensure that his beloved canine companion will be cared for after he's gone. Tom Hanks stars as Finch, a robotics engineer and one of the few survivors of a cataclysmic solar event that has left the world a wasteland. But Finch, who has been living in an underground bunker for a decade, has built a world of his own that he shares with his dog, Goodyear. He creates a robot, played by Caleb Landry Jones, to watch over Goodyear when he no longer can. As the trio embarks on a perilous journey into a desolate American West, Finch strives to show his creation, who names himself Jeff, the joy and wonder of what it means to be alive. Their road trip is paved with both challenges and humor, as it's as difficult for Finch to goad Jeff and Goodyear to get along as it is for him to manage the dangers of the new world.
Finch will be available to stream on Apple TV+ this Friday, November 5. Viewers can watch on all manner of internet-connected devices including Apple's own iPhone, iPad, and Mac — not to mention the Apple TV set-top box.
