‘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.
