A Man Called Otto Release Date, Preview, Cast

In his upcoming film, A Man Called Otto, the affable Tom Hanks will play “the grumpiest man in America,” despite his reputation as a pleasant person. Perhaps, after playing Colonel Tom Parker in Elvis, Tom Hanks is relishing the opportunity to go against his traditional nice guy image (though we’re hoping Otto learns some of the errors of his ways).

Since A Man Called Otto is adapted from Fredrik Backman’s New York Times best-seller A Man Called Ove, which was itself adapted into a film of the same name in 2015, many viewers may already be familiar with the adventure Hanks’ character is about to embark upon.

A Man Called Otto Release Date

A Man Called Otto will have a limited release in New York and Los Angeles on Christmas Day, 2022. The premiere date for this film is set for January 13, 2023. And on 6th January 2023, it will release in UK theatres.

A Man Called Otto Preview

Otto, a sixty-year-old bitter widower with a quick temper and a penchant for complaining and passing judgement on others, seems to spend much of his time at his late wife’s grave. Meanwhile, his neighbours are trying to maintain their composure around him. In the house next door, there’s a new young family. Although they don’t get along at first, the mother’s generosity, resolve, and the kids’ endearingly innocent pranks ultimately lead to friendship and profoundly affect his life.
