Neon has unveiled the first trailer for Splitsville, a wildly offbeat relationship comedy that looks ready to shake up rom-com norms—by gleefully breaking all the rules. Directed by Michael Angelo Covino and set for release on August 22, 2025, the film stars Dakota Johnson, Adria Arjona, Kyle Marvin, Nicholas Braun, and Charlie Gillespie in a tangled tale of divorce, friendship, and emotional landmines disguised as modern romance.
The chaos begins when Ashley (Adria Arjona) asks her sweet but slightly clueless husband Carey (Kyle Marvin) for a divorce. Reeling from heartbreak, Carey turns to his closest friends—Julie (Dakota Johnson) and Paul (Michael Covino)—for support, only to find out that their secret to happiness is… an open marriage. It’s a revelation that sets off a chain reaction of bad decisions, jealousy, and hilarious missteps as Carey tries to “evolve” into someone he very clearly isn’t.
Written by Covino and Marvin (yes, the same duo who star in it), Splitsville is shaping up to be a cringe-comedy with heart—emphasizing the absurdity of trying to intellectualize love while everyone is falling apart emotionally. It walks that fine line between satire and sincerity, mocking open-relationship culture while still admitting there’s a strange beauty in everyone trying their best to make love work, no matter how messy it gets.
With a whip-smart cast and an unfiltered take on modern romance, Splitsville is primed to be the kind of film that hits a little too close to home while making you laugh through the awkwardness. If the trailer is anything to go by, expect emotional chaos, uncomfortable truths, and Dakota Johnson delivering dry humor like no one else can. This one’s definitely not your traditional love story—and that might be exactly the point.
