Academy Award-nominated writer and director Celine Song has released the trailer for her latest film, Materialists, marking her first foray into the romantic comedy genre. Building on the success of her critically acclaimed debut, Past Lives, Song's new project features a star-studded cast, including Dakota Johnson, Pedro Pascal, and Chris Evans.
The A24-backed film follows a driven New York City matchmaker who becomes entangled in a love triangle. Pascal portrays a wealthy and charismatic man, while Evans plays a former lover who deeply understands her, rekindling unresolved emotions. The narrative explores themes of love, ambition, and self-discovery.
The Materialists trailer also introduces an original song by Japanese Breakfast, the musical project of Michelle Zauner. While the track is not part of Zauner's upcoming album, For Melancholy Brunettes (& Sad Women), fans can expect the album’s full release this Friday. Zauner’s career has seen a meteoric rise following her best-selling memoir Crying in H Mart and Grammy-nominated album Jubilee.
Last month, Zauner released the single "Mega Circuit," an exploration of masculinity and bigotry, accompanied by a visually compelling music video co-directed with longtime collaborator Adam Kolodny.
Materialists is set for international release on June 13. As anticipation grows, fans can stay updated on the film and its soundtrack through Hypebeast and other entertainment news sources.
