What happens when an exuberant, irresponsible dreamer who always says yes moves in with his overly responsible little sister to help raise her five-year-old daughter? BEN AND KATE, a new single-camera young ensemble comedy, follows these odd-couple siblings as they push each other out of their comfort zones and into real life. KATE FOX (Dakota Johnson, The Social Network) followed the rules all her lifeuntil she got pregnant in college and dropped out just shy of graduation. After the birth of her daughter, MADDIE (Maggie Jones, We Bought a Zoo, Footloose), Kate put her twenties on hold. Now working as a bar manager to make ends meet and maximize her time with five-year-old Maddie, shes uber-prepared for every possible catastrophe except for the arrival of her older brother, BEN FOX (Nat Faxon, Bad Teacher). Ben likes trouble a lot more than his sister does. His infectious energy makes you want to follow him into any number of bad ideas. Hell totally screw up your life, but somehow, youll feel good about it. Where Kate is all about planning and preparing, Ben is big on spontaneity and out-of-the-box ideas. .
