About a Boy
is a comedy-drama starring Hugh Grant as Will, a rich, child-free
and irresponsible Londoner in his thirties who, in search of
available women, invents an imaginary son and starts attending
single parent meetings. As a result of one of his liaisons, he
meets Marcus, an odd 12-year-old boy with problems at school.
Gradually, Will and Marcus become friends, and as Will teaches
Marcus how to be a cool kid, Marcus helps Will to finally grow
up. Based on Nick Hornby's popular British novel.
