Dermot Mulroney is a familiar face for everyone who has grown up watching classic Julia Roberts rom-coms in the 90s. After a career spanning 4 decades, the actor now returns in the role of a father in the next Netflix movie, Along for the Ride. In an interview, the actor revealed the pressure of working on a project that already had a huge fanbase.
<h2>Dermot connected to his role in Along for the Ride on Netflix</h2>
The movie is adapted from Sarah Dessen&#8217;s novel of the same name. The My Best Friend&#8217;s Wedding star revealed that Mulroney considered his role a huge responsibility, even if he wasn&#8217;t familiar with the audience. 
&#8220;It is a pretty heavy responsibility when you know there’s a built-in audience”
However, it was easy for him to sink into his role of Robert for the <a href="https://netflixjunkie.com/category/news/">Netflix</a> movie, <a href="https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/along-for-the-ride">Along for the Ride</a> because he has two teenage daughters and a 23-year-old son. He also praised his reel daughter, Emma Pasarow for doing a commendable job.

Mulroney plays an estranged father to an academically bright teen, Auden. Auden visits her dad for the summer to take a break before her college. She hopes to reconnect with her dad and make some memories along the way. But her dad has gotten married again and has a new baby to take care of. So, she has to look elsewhere for fun and she meets the enigmatic Eli, who teaches her that there&#8217;s more to life than just academics and goals.

<h2>Mulroney may make an appearance in Marvel&#8217;s Secret Invasion</h2>
Even though details about the show are still under wraps but rumor is Dermot may appear in a Marvel miniseries, Secret Invasion. When he was asked about this, instead of giving a straightforward answer, his <a href="https://www.today.com/video/dermot-mulroney-talks-netflix-movie-adaption-of-along-for-the-ride-139266117574">reply</a> was pretty vague. 
&#8220;Some of the things that you read on the internet are true and some of them aren&#8217;t.&#8221; He also dodges the question by calling it a &#8220;marvelous question&#8220;. 
The coming-of-age movie is going to hit the streamer on May 6. The release date was postponed to avoid a clash with <a href="https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/heartstopper/">Heartstopper. </a>
