Directed by Celine Song, the highly anticipated romantic comedy Materialists promises to deliver a fresh take on love, relationships, and self-worth. Song, widely praised for her debut film Past Lives, brings her sharp storytelling to this new project, exploring the complexities of modern romance.
The film stars Dakota Johnson as Lucy, a successful matchmaker based in New York City. Lucy has built her career helping others find love. However, when it comes to her own heart, she finds herself caught in a whirlwind of emotions. Torn between two men, Lucy is faced with a difficult decision: should she choose Harry Castillo (Pedro Pascal), a seemingly perfect new suitor, or return to her imperfect ex, John (Chris Evans)? This emotional tug-of-war challenges Lucy not only in her professional life but also in her personal journey of self-discovery and confidence.
