In recent years, films like (2013-2018), This Is Us (2016-present), and The Nuclear Family (no specific film, but a term used to describe traditional family structures) have given way to more nuanced and realistic portrayals of blended families. Movies like Step Brothers (2008), The Royal Tenenbaums (2001), and Little Miss Sunshine (2006) have already shown that non-traditional family structures can be a rich source of comedic and dramatic storytelling.
