Amazon has unveiled the first official trailer for ‘I Want You Back’, a comedy starring Charlie Day and Jenny Slate, set for release on Prime Video on February 11 just in time for Valentines Day. The trailer features two broken-hearted strangers as they help each other out by dealing with their individual break-ups together which will eventually lead them to plan how they’ll be able to get the love of their lives back. I Want You Back is directed by Jason Orley, from a screenplay written by Love, Simon writing duo Isaac Aptaker, and Elizabeth Berger. The film stars Charlie Day, Jenny Slate, Gina Rodriguez, Scott Eastwood, and Manny Jacinto.
The synopsis reads: Peter and Emma are total strangers, but when they meet, one thing instantly bonds them: they were both unexpectedly dumped by their respective partners, Anne and Noah, on the same weekend. As the saying goes, ‘misery loves company,’ but their commiseration turns into a mission when they see on social media that their exes have happily moved on to new romances, Anne with Logan and Noah with Ginny. Terrified that, in their 30s, they have lost their shot at happily ever after and horrified at the prospect of having to start over, Peter and Emma hatch a desperate plot to win the loves of their lives back. Each will do whatever it takes to put an end to their exes’ new relationships and send them running back to their arms.
