Netflix’s upcoming black-comedy thriller ‘I Care A Lot’ follows Marla Grayson, a professional, court-appointed guardian for dozens of elderly wards, who is poised with sharklike self-assurance. Grayson, of course, is a bad person. She tricks her elderly wards and seizes their assets -- all through dubious but legal means. It’s a well-oiled racket that Marla and her business partner and lover Fran use with brutal efficiency on their latest ‘cherry,’ Jennifer Peterson.

Jennifer is a wealthy retiree with no living heirs or family. But when their mark turns out to have an equally shady secret of her own and connections to a volatile gangster, Marla is forced to level up in a game only predators can play - one that’s neither fair nor square.
