John Krasinski's IF features an amazingly star-studded cast of recognizable names in nearly every role. Written and directed by Krasinski, IF follows a young girl who suddenly gains the ability to see people's former, abandoned imaginary friends. A stark departure from Krasinski's A Quiet Place series, IF puts the filmmaker's imagination on full display and promises to be his biggest film to date. While little is actually known about the movie so far, the impressive list of announced talent is already generating quite a buzz around the film.

IF first came on the radar in 2019 when Paramount Pictures won a bidding war to secure the rights to the enticing project. A joint venture between Krasinski's Sunday Night Productions and Ryan Reynolds's Maximum Effort, the film had all the makings of a hit from the outset with that tandem behind it. Every detail revealed about IF has only served to bolster its prestige, and major casting announcements have outlined the film's massive ensemble of talent, whether they appear in live action or provide their voice to an animated imaginary friend.
