When Will Materialists Release? This Is How Fans React To First Trailer Featuring Dakota Johnson, Chris Evans, And Pedro Pascal

On Tuesday, A24 released the highly anticipated trailer for Materialists, a romantic drama featuring Dakota Johnson, Chris Evans, and Pedro Pascal.

The film serves as a follow-up to Celine Song’s Oscar-nominated Past Lives and explores themes of love, relationships, and modern matchmaking.

Plot: A Matchmaker’s Search for Her Own Love Story

Set against the vibrant backdrop of New York City, Materialists follows Lucy, an ambitious matchmaker portrayed by Dakota Johnson. She is dedicated to pairing people with their ideal partners, often stopping strangers on the street to gauge compatibility.

However, her clients come with diverse and sometimes bizarre preferences, including specific physical traits like “nothing over 20 BMI” or the desire for a partner who is simply “ready to settle.”

Despite successfully orchestrating her ninth wedding, Lucy finds herself uncertain about her own romantic journey. The trailer teases a complicated love triangle where she is torn between two men—Chris Evans, who plays her imperfect yet charming ex, and Pedro Pascal, the seemingly perfect new love interest.

Chris Evans takes on the role of Lucy’s former lover, a waiter who knows her favorite drink by heart. On the other hand, Pedro Pascal plays a man who appears to be her ideal match, boasting wealth and a luxurious $12 million apartment.

As she navigates these complex emotions, Lucy begins to doubt her abilities as a matchmaker. In the trailer, she reflects on her job, saying, “I don’t think I’m very good at my job anymore.” She also questions the motivations behind marriage, noting that people tie the knot out of loneliness and hope.
