Summary
- Michelle Monaghan sought family-friendly roles for her children.
- The Family Plan became Apple TV's most-watched original film.
- Monaghan hopes for a 'Family Plan' trilogy after sequel success.

Actress Michelle Monaghan has prioritized family-friendly projects, noting her career previously lacked films her children could watch. This desire led her to "The Family Plan," which quickly became Apple TV's most-watched original film, prompting a sequel. Monaghan shared her experiences filming the sequel in London and Paris, often with her family joining her.
The "Family Plan" franchise, starring Mark Wahlberg and Monaghan, focuses on a family uncovering a former assassin's past. Monaghan values that both films allow the entire family to be heroic, not just Wahlberg's character. She recently reunited with "Mission: Impossible" co-star Tom Cruise, expressing gratitude for his impact on her career.
