What to know about the Jennifer Garner comedy, ‘One Attempt Remaining’
If you’re eyeing a new slapstick comedy on streaming, well, Netflix is currently answering prayers. And the answer to your prayer? It is definitely the upcoming comedy feature, One Attempt Remaining, starring Jennifer Garner.
Netflix recently opened the floodgates of details about its forthcoming feature, directed by Kay Cannon, with quite a shocking ask.

What is the plot?
One Attempt Remaining features a ridiculously unique storyline about an ex-married couple who, years after their bitter divorce, learn that the cryptocurrency they won one night in a chaotic cruise game is now worth millions. However, both have forgotten the password they need to access the funds that could turn their lives around.
With only three days left until their account expires, they are officially on the clock. So, they must race against time to recount and retrace their deeds that night, not only to crack the password to their jackpot but also to rediscover why they fell for each other to begin with.
