Netflix is in negotiations to buy Subscription Video on Demand (SVOD) rights of Paul Rudd-Selena Gomez-starrer "Fundamentals of Caring".
The deal is pegged at nearly USD seven million, a source told The Hollywood Reporter.
Written and directed by "Late Show With David Letterman" alum Rob Burnett, the film centres on Ben (Rudd) who becomes a caregiver to earn money after suffering a tragedy.
His first client, Trevor (Craig Roberts), is an 18-year-old with muscular dystrophy. One paralysed emotionally, one physically, Ben and Trevor hit the road, finding hope, friendship, and Dot (Gomez) in this funny and touching inspirational tale.
"Fundamentals of Caring", which is based on Jonathan Evison's 2013 novel "The Revised Fundamentals of Caregiving", will make its world premiere at the festival on January 29.
