Dakota Johnson, Adria Arjona and Kyle Marvin Star in Trailer for Michael Angelo Covino's ‘Splitsville'
Marriages crumble, crash and intertwine in the official trailer for Splitsville. Following a premiere at the Cannes Film Festival last month, Neon and Topic Studios released the trailer for director Michael Angelo Covino's and co-writer Kyle Marvin's second feature Monday. The open-marriage comedy stars Dakota Johnson, Adria Arjona, Corvino and Marvin, with Nicholas Braun, David Castañeda, O-T Fagbenle and Charlie Gillespie rounding out the cast. More from The Hollywood Reporter Nanni Moretti Teaming With Louis Garrel, Jasmine Trinca on New Film Celine Song on How 'Materialists' Subverts the Rom-Com With a "Really Frank Conversation" How Celine Song's 'Materialists' Approaches New York City Wealth The trailer unveils a series of nail-biting, raunchy and hilarious moments. The film's synopsis is as follows: 'After Ashley (Arjona) asks for a divorce, good-natured Carey (Marvin) runs to his friends, Julie (Johnson) and Paul (Covino), for support. He's shocked to discover that the secret to their happiness is an open marriage, that is until Carey crosses the line and throws all of their relationships into chaos.' Splitsville serves as a reunion for Corvino and Marvin, whose first feature, The Climb, premiered at Cannes in 2019. While both films highlight the aftermath of getting involved with the other's significant other, Splitsville shows the writing duo expanding into broader material. 'After we made The Climb, Kyle and I started working on a couple of different stories and scripts that were a bit bigger — different themes, different kinds of worlds,' Covino told THR ahead of the film's Cannes premiere. 'This project really came out of a desire to get back to something we could make in a more contained way. Something we didn't have to ask for a ton of permission to do.' Splitsville is slated to hit theaters Aug. 22.
