Dakota Johnson and Sean Penn‘s recent controversial film, Daddio, is coming to Netflix for United States viewers. The R-rated movie will be available to stream starting October 26, 2024.
What is the Plot of Daddio?
A young woman (Dakota Johnson) jumps into the backseat of a yellow taxi. The cabbie (Sean Penn) throws the vehicle into drive as they leave JFK airport and head into the night toward Manhattan, engaging in a conversation that takes them both on a single remarkable journey. As the two navigate the very human connection between passenger and driver in the world’s biggest city, they locate a common ground that helps each of them see the other’s point of view — bringing them both closer to figuring out themselves.
The film, written and directed by Christy Hall in her feature directorial debut, also stars Ro Donnelly, Daisy Ridley, and Marcos A. Gonzalez.
Note: Daddio is rated R for language throughout, sexual material, and brief graphic nudity.
According to our review, ‘Daddio’ is a great example of how powerful storytelling can be when it’s just two people talking, guided by exceptional writing and direction. It’s all about human relationships and connection.
Johnson, along with Ro Donnelly, is producing the film through their company, TeaTime Pictures, while Emma Tillinger Koskoff and Hall are also one of the producers.
Daddio is also available on digital platforms and on DVD.
