William Fitzgerald portrays the title character, an autistic boy in New York City who is being co-raised by his divorced parents Max (Bobby Cannavale) and Jenna (Rose Byrne). Max is an at-the-brink stand up comedian who lives with his father Stan (Robert De Niro). When Max attacks one of Ezra’s doctors, he is forced into a restraining order, but decides to take matters into his own hands and kidnaps his son, and takes a road trip while learning that he’s landed a gig on the Jimmy Kimmel show. As law enforcement, his ex-wife and Stan pursue Max and Ezra, the whole situation comes into focus.

“Ezra” is in theaters on May 30h. Featuring William Fitzgerald, Bobby Cannavale, Rose Byrne, Rainn Wilson and Vera Farmiga. Written by Tony Spiridakis. Directed by Tony Goldwyn. Rated “R”
