You know those movies that make you cry for 11 altogether different reasons? Based on the two-and-a-half-minute trailer for the new Netflix movie Fatherhood, I can already attest to it evoking tears of grief, tears of hope, and tears for the miraculous beauty of a parent's love for his child.

Starring Kevin Hart (yes, all that emotion is coming in the form of a Kevin Hart flick, I know!), the movie is based on a true story, Two Kisses For Maddy: A Memoir of Loss & Love by Matthew Logelin. It follows a man and his young daughter, played by Melody Hurd, through the early years of her life as he navigates the challenges of parenthood while grieving the death of his partner.

It premieres on June 18, just in time for Father's Day. Cue another reason to cry!
