Get ready to laugh out loud — the iconic duo is back, reimagined for a whole new generation! Sanford and Son hits the screen as a side-splitting Peacock Original movie, starring Eddie Murphy as the quick-witted, grumpy Fred Sanford and Donald Glover as his long-suffering son Lamont.

Set in modern-day Watts, the Sanford junkyard becomes ground zero for chaos when the police show up searching for a missing person… possibly buried somewhere under their mountain of scrap. What follows is a wild ride of clever schemes, hilarious misunderstandings, and father-son bickering at its finest.

With Murphy’s legendary comedic timing and Glover’s sharp, charismatic energy, the dynamic between Fred and Lamont has never been funnier — or more heartfelt.

Expect a modern twist on classic humor, unexpected twists, and a whole lot of junkyard justice.
