A24 Drops First Poster for ‘Materialists’ – Here’s Everything You Need to Know!
A24 has officially unveiled the first-ever poster for its upcoming romantic comedy Materialists, starring Dakota Johnson, Chris Evans, and Pedro Pascal. Directed by Celine Song, the visionary behind the Oscar-nominated Past Lives, this star-studded rom-com is set to take the big screen by storm with a nationwide theatrical release on June 13, 2025.
A Potential Cannes Premiere?
With the release date locked for June, there is strong speculation that Materialists could make its global premiere at the Cannes Film Festival in May. A24 has a history of premiering its films at prestigious festivals, and this rom-com, featuring an A-list ensemble, might be the next big title to hit the red carpet before its theatrical debut.
What’s Materialists About?
This highly anticipated film follows a successful New York City matchmaker, played by Dakota Johnson, who finds herself caught in a chaotic love triangle between the man she deems to be the perfect match and her not-so-perfect ex. The film’s official synopsis teases a whirlwind of romance, drama, and self-discovery:
“A matchmaker's lucrative business is complicated when she falls into a toxic love triangle that threatens her clients.”
Expect plenty of charm, humor, and heartfelt moments as the film explores love, destiny, and second chances.
Meet the Star-Studded Cast
Apart from its three lead stars, Materialists boasts a stellar supporting cast, including:
- Zoë Winters (Succession)
- Marin Ireland (The Umbrella Academy)
- Dasha Nekrasova (The Scary of Sixty-First)
- Louisa Jacobson (The Gilded Age)
- Sawyer Spielberg (Honeydew)
With such an impressive lineup, the film promises both laugh-out-loud moments and emotional depth.
The Team Behind Materialists
Director Celine Song made waves in the industry with Past Lives, which captivated audiences with its poignant storytelling and deep emotional resonance. The film earned five Golden Globe nominations, three BAFTA nominations, and two Oscar nods, including Best Picture and Best Original Screenplay.
Now, Song is teaming up again with producer David Hinojosa, alongside Christine Vachon and Pamela Koffler of Killer Films, to bring Materialists to life. With such a powerhouse creative team, expectations for this rom-com are sky-high.
How Materialists Connects to Past Lives
While Materialists takes a lighter, comedic approach compared to Past Lives, it still carries the signature storytelling depth that made Song a breakout filmmaker. If Past Lives explored love and fate across decades, Materialists dives into modern romance and the dilemmas of choosing between what we want and what we need.
A24’s Summer Lineup Heats Up
Apart from Materialists, A24 is also preparing for the summer release of another major project – Ari Aster’s Eddington. The upcoming thriller, starring Pedro Pascal, Joaquin Phoenix, Emma Stone, and Austin Butler, follows a small-town New Mexico sheriff with big ambitions. With both Materialists and Eddington on the horizon, A24 is set to dominate the summer box office.
When Does the Materialists Trailer Drop?
Fans won’t have to wait much longer for a sneak peek at Materialists! The trailer is rumored to drop in early April, building up excitement for what could be the romantic comedy of the year.
With a charming cast, a talented director, and an engaging plot, Materialists is shaping up to be one of the most anticipated rom-coms of 2025. Whether it makes its grand debut at Cannes or heads straight to theaters in June, one thing is certain – this movie is going to have audiences talking
