Traditional nuclear family structures are no longer the only norm. According to the US Census Bureau, in 2019, approximately 16% of children lived in blended families. This shift is reflected in modern cinema, where blended family dynamics have become a staple in many films. Movies like , "Little Miss Sunshine" (2006) , and "This Is Where I Leave You" (2014) have paved the way for more recent releases, such as "Instant Family" (2018) , "The Laundromat" (2019) , and "Holidate" (2020) .
