Summit Entertainment has moved back the release of director Jodie Foster's The Beaver from March 23 to May 6. The dramedy will receive a limited release on that date before expanding wide on May 20.

The Beaver is an emotional story about a man on a journey to re-discover his family and re-start his life.

Plagued by his own demons, Walter Black (Mel Gibson) was once a successful toy executive and family man who now suffers from depression. No matter what he tries, Walter can't seem to get himself back on track... until a beaver hand puppet enters his life.

Foster, Anton Yelchin, Jennifer Lawrence and Cherry Jones co-star.

So you’re saying that only a select audience will be seeing Foster’s Beaver?

[Don Corleone]

Saw the "Beaver" for a bit in "NELL".

"No matter what he tries, Walter can't seem to get himself back on track... until a beaver hand puppet enters his life."

Is is a beaver hand puppet, or a rubber glove with a beaver image drawn on it?

In before the thread gets pulled.

Ive been too hard on the beaver.

Sadly, Jodie Foster’s Beaver is dead.

I hear Wally has passed on, too.

Best,

I wonder if the Beaver will have a big opening or small opening at the box office?

I know it is hard to read past the headline, but it looks like the beaver will have a very wide opening...

LOL!

In all honesty, if Gibson appeared at my door asking for help, I would do whatever I could to get him back on track.

After all he’s been through, he’s still a fellow American.

[Constitution Day]

Agreed. I am trying to be judicious with mine, too. ;)

[blackdog]

If everyone beats up on Foster’s Beaver, does that make it a fetish film?

[alice_in_bubbaland]

I did, just out of curiosity.

[Red Badger]

I wonder if it’ll be rated X?.........

Somewhere, John Hinkley’s getting a massive case of carpal tunnel syndrome after reading that headline.

After reading your post not only did I spill my coffee, but, I have not been able to clean up the mess because I am still laughing.

O.M.G.

And I need it for the humor to follow. A good dose of FR hilarity and wit is my RX for the day.

Wow! This movie sounds incredibly stupid and boring. Now if Tony Dow makes a cameo....
