IF 2024: OTT Release date, Box office, Budget and Review

Plot

Twelve-year-old Bea moves into her grandmother Margaret’s apartment in New York while her father awaits heart surgery in the same hospital where her mother died of cancer years earlier. One night, Bea sees an unfamiliar creature and follows it back to her grandmother’s building. The next day, she sees the creature again, this time with a man. Bea follows them to a nearby house where the man, Cal, retrieves a large, furry purple creature named Blue.

She also meets another creature, a butterfly-like being named Blossom, and faints. She awakens in Cal’s apartment and learns that he has been working with imaginary friends, or IFs, to place them with new children as their original children have grown up and forgotten them. Initially reluctant, Bea eventually agrees to help Cal.

Lewis, an elderly teddy bear and the head of the facility inspires Bea to use her imagination to redesign the place, much to Cal’s dismay. Bea tries to pair one of the IFs with Benjamin, a young patient at the hospital, but he cannot see any of them.

Talking with her grandmother, Bea sees a picture of her as a young dancer and recognizes Blossom in the background. Realiz was her grandmother’s IF, and Bea decided to test Lewis’ idea.
