"Stepmom" is a 1998 American comedy-drama film directed by Chris Columbus, based on the 1996 novel of the same name by Jennifer Hamilton. The film stars Julia Roberts and Susan Sarandon. It tells the story of a terminally ill mother who tries to build a relationship between her children and her fiancé before she passes away.
The archetypal evil stepparent (Cinderella’s Lady Tremaine) has largely been retired. In her place is a more uncomfortable figure: the well-intentioned interloper. Films like The Kids Are All Right (2010) give us Paul, a sperm donor trying to insert himself into a two-mother family. He is not villainous—he is awkward, hopeful, and ultimately superfluous. The film’s honesty lies in showing that biological ties, even late-arriving ones, can unsettle a household more than any wicked scheme.
Similarly, Fatherhood (2021) and CODA (2021) depict stepparents and new partners who must earn their place not through grand gestures, but through the mundane, thankless work of showing up. The modern stepparent narrative is less about winning a child’s affection and more about accepting that you may always stand slightly outside the inner circle—and loving them anyway.
