Who stars in Materialists?

Zoë Winters as Sophie
Marin Ireland as Violet
Dasha Nekrasova as Daisy

Materialists has received mixed reviews from critics. Brian Truitt, film critic at USA TODAY, gave the movie 2 and a half stars out of four. He wrote that it's a 'well-acted affair with three A-list leads - Johnson, Chris Evans and Pedro Pascal - and while certainly thoughtful, the film's strengths are upended by a mood-murdering melancholy.'
Despite its emotional tone, the performances of the lead actors have been widely appreciated, especially for their chemistry and screen presence.
