A confident young woman strides down the street, dressed sharply in a black skirt, white shirt, and sleek black jacket. As she passes a handsome man, they exchange smiles, until she abruptly turns and asks, “Hey! Are you single?”
But the follow-up isn’t what he expects.
“I’m a matchmaker. Give me a call if you wanna meet somebody.”
Well, that’s one way to land a client! She’s clearly got the skills to make things happen.
Dakota Johnson stars as Lucy, a successful matchmaker, in the trailer for Materialists. But soon, instead of setting people up, she finds herself caught in a love triangle between a charming millionaire (Pedro Pascal) and a handsome, down-to-earth server (Chris Evans). The fresh pairings already look intriguing, with palpable chemistry in both relationships. The trailer exudes major early 2000s/late ’90s rom-com vibes, especially since phones seem surprisingly absent from most scenes.
Written and directed by Celine Song (Past Lives), Materialists promises to be an engaging drama exploring matchmaking, love, and what truly matters in relationships. Chris Evans plays a hopeless romantic who, by the looks of it, is struggling financially, while Pedro Pascal embodies the wealthy, confident, and effortlessly suave older man who seemingly has it all.
So, who will the matchmaker choose? Or will she decide not to choose at all?
We’ll have to wait until Materialists hits theaters on June 13 to find out. But if the title is any hint, we might already know who the frontrunner is.
