The Intern

Synopsis

Ben Whittaker (Robert De Niro), a 70-year-old widower who has found retirement to be a bit too quiet, decides to get back into the game by applying for a "Senior Intern" position at a trendy Brooklyn-based fashion startup. He is assigned to the company's founder, Jules Ostin (Anne Hathaway), a tireless and perfectionist leader who is struggling to balance a booming business with a strained personal life.

Initially skeptical of what a man from the "analog age" can offer a digital-first company, Jules soon discovers that Ben is a fountain of wisdom, stability, and old-school professionalism. As Ben navigates the world of hoodies and open-plan offices, he becomes much more than an intern—he becomes the trusted confidant and "calm in the storm" that Jules desperately needs to navigate the challenges of modern life.
