It's almost here!
The trailer for the anticipated new movie "The Idea of You" — along with new photos from the film as well as a song, "Dance Before We Walk," from August Moon, the boy band whose young lead singer forges a relationship with a much older art gallery owner — was released by Prime Video in March 2024.
Within days, it had made history: Deadline reported that it racked up 125 million global views across all social media platforms, breaking the record to become the most watched trailer for any original streaming movie.
Then the Amazon Original movie itself premiered at the 2024 SXSW Film & TV Festival on March 16 (see all the best photos here).
It debuts on Prime Video on May 2.
It's based on the 2017 book of the same name by actress and author Robinne Lee. Prime Video sums up the project, which is directed by Michael Showalter from a screenplay co-written with Jennifer Westfeldt, like this:
"'The Idea of You' centers on Solène (Anne Hathaway), a 40-year-old single mom who begins an unexpected romance with 24-year-old Hayes Campbell (Nicholas Galitzine), the lead singer of August Moon, the hottest boy band on the planet. When Solène must step in to chaperone her teenage daughter's trip to the Coachella Music Festival after her ex bails at the last minute, she has a chance encounter with Hayes and there is an instant, undeniable spark. As they begin a whirlwind romance, it isn't long before Hayes' superstar status poses unavoidable challenges to their relationship, and Solène soon discovers that life in the glare of his spotlight might be more than she bargained for."
