Bea Joins Cal in Reuniting Kids with the 'IFs'
Bea (played by Cailey Fleming) discovers that she has a secret superpower to see everyone's Imaginary Friends — new and old ones.
She decides to embark on a journey that would help these abandoned 'IFs' get back to their former kid owners and reconnect before it's too late.
Based on the trailer, Ryan Reynolds needs Bea's help finding these orphan IFs back to their home, where they belong.
Considering how fantastical movies like this work, Bea's nature as a younger character means she has more to offer to the table than from the perspective of an adult in taking care of these creatures.
Fleming recently revealed that she was supposed to "take a break from acting". That is until her agent called to tell her that John Krasinski was holding auditions for the IF movie.
"All I knew about [IF] was [it was] a family movie and John was in charge," Fleming shared, "So I said, 'Okay, I'll do it because I knew John from The Office and I loved him.'"
Little did she know, after wrapping up filming for The Ones Who Live that she would end up leading the IF movie.
