Vince Vaughn, Susan Sarandon Star in Netflix Movie

Vince Vaughn is cooking up a plan to share other families’ cherished recipes in the trailer for Netflix‘s movie Nonnas.

Stephen Chbosky directed the fact-based comedy feature that begins streaming May 9. Rounding out the cast are Linda Cardellini, Lorraine Bracco, Talia Shire, Brenda Vaccaro, Joe Manganiello and Campbell Scott.

Nonnas centers on Joe Scaravella, who decides to alter his life path by starting an Italian restaurant that hires Italian grandmothers, aka “nonnas,” as the chefs. The story is based on the real-life Scaravella, the owner of Staten Island eatery Enoteca Maria and author of the 2015 cookbook Nonna’s House.

“I want them to make the dishes that they were passed on from their family,” Vaughn says in the trailer. “I want to share it with everybody.”

Later in the footage, Sarandon tells Vaughn, “The only thing that you’re gonna regret are the moments that you did not take.”

Chbosky (Dear Evan Hansen, The Perks of Being a Wallflower) helmed the film from a script by Liz Maccie. Producers include Gigi Pritzker and Rachel Shane for Madison Wells, in addition to Jack Turner for Matador Content.

Vaughn’s recent credits include the features Queenpins and Freaky and the series Bad Monkey. He is part of the voice cast for the forthcoming Warner Bros. animated movie Animal Friends that also includes Ryan Reynolds, Jason Momoa, Eric André, Addison Rae, Lil Rel Howery, Dan Levy and Aubrey Plaza.

Sarandon recently appeared alongside Kerry Washington in the Tyler Perry-directed film The Six Triple Eight that hit Netflix last year.
