The first trailer for Fountain of youth, which stars Natalie Portman and john Krasinski, was released by apple TV+, and it has already outperformed its Netflix equivalent. The plot of Guy Ritchie's upcoming heist adventure film, which was written by james Vanderbilt, centers on estranged siblings Krasinski and Portman who get together to look for the fabled Fountain of Youth. As its name implies, the fabled spring, which has been portrayed in several movies and television programs, is claimed to provide the gift of youth to everyone who drinks from it, which explains why it is so highly prized.
 
In the apple TV+ original film, Krasinski plays a treasure hunter named Luke who seeks the aid of his sister, Charlotte (Portman), a gallery curator, to find the Fountain of Youth.  They search for the enchanted spring all across the world, from egypt to England.  Naturally, Luke and Charlotte have a hard time getting back together along the way because of their divergent personalities.  Additionally, they come against those who wish to prevent them from discovering the Fountain of Youth.  Like a previous Netflix movie, Fountain of youth is essentially a treasure-hunting movie from start to finish.

Red Notice, a Netflix original movie from 2021, was a letdown despite its star strength, production value, and excitement.  Fortunately, Fountain of youth, apple TV+'s response to the action comedy, seems to be making up for its significant disappointment.  Despite being one of the most watched films on Netflix ever, red Notice isn't necessarily a good film.  The cast's performances, the script's weak writing, the story's easily forgotten (yet complicated) plot, and other issues were criticized by several reviews.
 
The good news is that Fountain of youth looks so much better than red Notice, even though they appear to have certain similarities (both revolve around treasure hunts, have an all-star cast, etc.).  First off, compared to the usual partnership-of-convenience cliché, the brother-sister interaction is far more intriguing and distinctive.  According to People, filmmaker Guy Ritchie stated: "With brothers and sisters, there will always be squabbling. And, as far as I’m concerned, squabbling is the best version of arguing. Brothers and sisters can say things to each other that no one else can. You can warm your hands off that kind of banter."
