Sony Pictures has just dropped the official trailer for A Big Bold Beautiful Journey starring Margot Robbie and Colin Farrell. Kogonada directs with a script from Seth Reiss.

What if you could open a doorway and walk through it to re-live a defining moment from your past? Sarah (Margot Robbie) and David (Colin Farrell) are single strangers who meet at a mutual friend’s wedding and soon, through a surprising twist of fate, find themselves on A Big Bold Beautiful Journey – a funny, fantastical, sweeping adventure together where they get to re-live important moments from their respective pasts, illuminating how they got to where they are in the present…and possibly getting a chance to alter their futures.

"This film is really about reckoning with your past in order to find the possibility of love in the present," Kogonada told Vanity Fair. "What do you have to reckon with in order to truly connect with other people? And I think as you get older, you realize your past has everything to do with how you understand love in the present."

"Going from The Penguin to this was quite simply stepping from the darkness into the light," Farrell expressed. "As amazing as it was to work on The Penguin, that story was all about trauma and its various articulations and calcifications. This film is all about letting go of trauma—moving past it."

Along with Robbie and Farrell, the cast also includes Kevin Kline and Phoebe Waller-Bridge. Bradley Thomas, Ryan Friedkin, Seth Reiss, and Youree Henley produce, while Kogonada, Ilene Feldman, Gino Falsetto, Ori Eisen, Paul Mezey, Micah Green, Dan Steinman, and John Atwood executive produce.

"I think that’s the longest break I’ve ever had between jobs," Robbie said, referencing how her last acting project was 2022's Barbie. "I thought it would be more scary to be walking onto the Big Bold set on day one, but it wasn't. Everything about this film was immediately comfortable."

The romantic drama will be released exclusively in theaters on September 19.
