‘Splitsville' Trailer: Dakota Johnson Navigates Love, Chaos, and Swinging in Michael Angelo Covino's Bold Marital Comedy

Dakota Johnson is raising the stakes in romantic comedy with her upcoming film Splitsville, following her recent appearance in A24's Materialists. The first trailer of Michael Angelo Covino 's Splitsville—in which he stars alongside Johnson as a couple in an open marriage—was released by Neon on Monday. The couple moves in with two friends who are also grappling with their own marital struggles, setting the stage for a witty and emotionally tangled comedy. Good-natured Carey (Kyle Marvin) turns to his friends Julie (Johnson) and Paul (Covino) for support after his wife Ashley (Adria Arjona) files for divorce. But he's shocked to discover that Julie and Paul's secret to happiness is an open marriage. Things spiral out of control when Carey takes the idea too far, setting off a chain reaction that threatens to ruin all their relationships. Co-written by Covino and Marvin, Splitsville also stars Nicholas Braun, David Castañeda, O-T Fagbenle, and Charlie Gillespie. The film is set to release in theaters on August 22. After the film received an eight-minute standing ovation at its Cannes premiere last month, Covino shared that the story was meant to explore 'characters who pretend to have more figured out than they do.' Marvin elaborated, saying, 'A lot of us and our friends were talking about the dynamics of relationships, and often we found ourselves lying a little about how we felt or how good we felt in certain situations. That's where the idea started—what would happen if we reacted viscerally, without overthinking? If we just let those raw emotions—jealousy, fear, vulnerability—play out in real time?' With its bold concept, sharp writing, and a stellar ensemble cast, Splitsville promises a refreshing take on modern love and emotional transparency. As audiences gear up for its theatrical debut on August 22, the film invites them to laugh, cringe, and reflect on the messy, unpredictable reality of relationships today.

‘Splitsville' trailer OUT: Dakota Johnson stars in chaotic comedy of love, lust and betrayal

First glimpse of Cannes-premiered comedy reveals a tangled web of open marriages and divorce-fuelled drama The trailer for Splitsville, the upcoming American comedy directed by Michael Angelo Covino and starring Dakota Johnson, has officially dropped—offering a glimpse into a messy, hilarious, and emotionally charged tale of modern love gone sideways. Premiering in the Cannes Premiere section at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival on May 19, the film is now set for a theatrical release via Neon on August 22, 2025. Set in a world where relationship rules are rewritten—and promptly broken—Splitsville follows two couples whose lives collide in unexpected ways after a confession of infidelity turns one divorce into a four-way fallout. The trailer opens with Ashley (Adria Arjona) coolly informing her husband Carey (Kyle Marvin) that she's cheated and wants a divorce. Stunned, Carey wordlessly steps out of the car and bolts across a field—arriving at the home of Paul (played by director Covino) and Julie (Dakota Johnson), a couple in an open relationship. When Julie and Carey inevitably sleep together, things seem in keeping with Paul and Julie's non-monogamous arrangement—until Carey admits the affair to Paul. What follows, as teased in the trailer, is an explosive chain reaction filled with tension, betrayal, and comic mayhem. Produced by Johnson herself, the film also stars Nicholas Braun, David Castañeda, O-T Fagbenle, Charlie Gillespie and Simon Webster. With its razor-sharp writing by Covino and Marvin, and an ensemble cast that brings emotional nuance to absurdity, Splitsville aims to explore the blurred lines of love, honesty, and human insecurity.
