Watch the brand new teaser trailer for The Invite below:

Here’s the official synopsis:

Joe (Seth Rogen) and Angela’s (Olivia Wilde) marriage is on thin ice. When they invite their enigmatic upstairs neighbors, Pina (Penelope Cruz) and Hawk (Edward Norton) for a dinner party, the night spirals into unexpected places. Have they reignited the spark or lit the match that burns it all down?

Starring ans directed by Wilde, and written by Rashida Jones and Will McCormack, The Invite is a cheeky, curious and cunning re-interpretation of Cesc Gay’s The People Upstairs, and while little is revealed in this brisk teaser trailer, the breadcrumbs are laid, and what were promised is a cinematic experience that will play with your emotions, and certainly get a reaction out of audiences, with plenty of hijinks and surprises guranteed to startle and shock promised by Wilde.

Having first screened for buyers and press at this year’s Sundance Film Festival, The Invite caused an immediate bidding war, and was dubbed a sensation, and after much back and forth, was acquiired by A24 Films, and having now seen this first teaser trailer, we can unecoiovacalluy confirm that this was a right decision.

A happily engaged couple is put to the test when an unexpected turn sends their wedding week off the rails.

Kristoffer Borgli’s Descent Into Beautiful Chaos

Following the surreal bite of Dream Scenario, filmmaker Kristoffer Borgli pivots into something even more volatile. The Drama sees Borgli sharpening his voice with a kinetic, almost anxiety-inducing style that thrives on discomfort. His direction is jagged and unpredictable, constantly keeping the audience off balance as he digs deep into his characters’ emotional fractures.

What begins as a familiar romantic setup quickly mutates into something far more chaotic. Borgli doesn’t just explore conflict; he weaponises it. The result is a film that feels alive with tension, its tone shifting between biting satire and outright psychological unease in the blink of an eye.

One Confession, Total Collapse

At the centre of The Drama are Emma Harwood (Zendaya), a marketing executive at a literary agency, and Charlie Thompson (Pattinson), a museum curator. They’re weeks away from their wedding, caught up in the whirlwind of tastings, rehearsals, and celebrations that define the lead-up to the big day.

But everything fractures during a seemingly harmless game: a cheeky dare to reveal the worst thing they’ve ever done. What follows is a confession so explosive that it detonates the very foundation of their relationship. From that moment on, The Drama shifts gears entirely, plunging into a spiralling descent of mistrust, paranoia, and emotional volatility.

What’s most striking is just how early this revelation lands. Borgli wastes no time pulling the rug out, setting the stage for a narrative that becomes increasingly twisted, unpredictable, and, at times, uncomfortably raw.

Chemistry Turned Combustible

Zendaya and Pattinson are magnetic together, bringing an effortless chemistry that initially grounds the film in something recognisable and intimate. But as the narrative fractures, so too does their dynamic. What begins as warmth and connection quickly mutates into suspicion, resentment, and emotional warfare.

Rather than delivering a conventional romance, The Drama becomes a jagged exploration of truth, trust, and identity. It asks a deeply unsettling question: how well do we really know the person we love? Both actors rise to the challenge with fearless performances, embracing the film’s tonal swings and pushing their characters into increasingly volatile territory.

Tension, Paranoia, and Pitch-Black Comedy

What makes The Drama so compelling is its relentless escalation. Borgli continuously tightens the screws, layering moment upon moment of unease until the tension becomes almost unbearable. And just when it feels like things can’t possibly get worse, they do.

Yet amidst the anxiety and emotional carnage, there’s a razor-sharp comedic edge. The film thrives on its ability to pivot from intense psychological confrontation to wildly inappropriate, laugh-out-loud moments. It’s this balance of shock and humour that gives The Drama its unique bite, making it as entertaining as it is unsettling.

Unpredictability is the film’s greatest weapon. Every scene feels like it could tip in any direction, keeping audiences locked in a state of constant anticipation.

Final Verdict: A Twisted Love Story That Leaves a Mark

For those seeking safe, traditional storytelling, The Drama is not that film. Instead, it’s a bold, boundary-pushing experience that dives headfirst into the darker edges of intimacy and human connection. It’s messy, volatile, and at times deeply uncomfortable, but that’s exactly the point.

With its fearless performances, razor-sharp direction, and an unflinching commitment to its chaotic vision, The Drama stands as another striking entry in A24’s ever-evolving catalogue. It’s a film that lingers, gnaws, and provokes long after the credits roll.

Check out the brand new trailer for The Drama below:

Here’s the official synopsis:

A happily engaged couple is put to the test when an unexpected turn sends their wedding week off the rails.

Building off of the already taut experience that was The Drama’s first teaser trauiler, this full trailer pulls audiences into the jitters and sudden fallout of a revelation shared between engaged couple Emma (Zendaya) and Charlie (Robert Pattinson) that appears out of nowhere, but which barrels forward like an out of control freight train, and you can forget about trying to figure out what direction The Drama is trying to head in, because things are about to get loco.

Both Zendaya and Pattinson are in tip-top form with this new project, and filmmaker Kristoffer Borgli really rackets up the tension with this one, and coming from the guy who crafted the superb Dream Scenario, we have massive expectations for The Drama, and you just know he’s going to push this one in the most deranged direction possible and we’re down for it.

Here’s the official synopsis:

A happily engaged couple is put to the test when an unexpected turn sends their wedding week off the rails.

While the new teaser trailer for The Drama only hits at ‘the drama’ to follow, it provides an incredibly interesting tease of what is to come while again showcasing a fertile stage for both Hollywood heavyhitters Zendaya and Robert Pattinson to play upon, and its clear that The Drama will showcase a hell of a lot of emotional range, and it’s going to make for a very heavy watch.

A would-be engaged couple, Emma and Charlie, you can sense the rising tension playing out amidst the actors, and there’s a bubbling explosiveness playing out here that’s going to rise to the surface in a terrible way. It makes for an intriguing experience as an audience member, and given the talent both Zendaya and Pattinson bring to the screen, audiences will absolutely be ready for this.
