About My Fake Boyfriend
A young man in a tricky situation follows the advice of his unconventional best friend and uses social media to create a fake boyfriend to keep his awful ex-lover out of his life. But everything backfires when he meets the real love of his life, and breaking up with his fake boyfriend proves hard to do.
Directed by Rose Troche, My Fake Boyfriend leans on a strong ensemble — Keiynan Lonsdale, Dylan Sprouse, Samer Salem — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 2022.
