UK trailer for Swimming with Men starring Rob Brydon

June 9, 2018 by Amie Cranswick

Ahead of its UK release next month, a trailer has arrived online for the upcoming comedy Swimming with Men. Directed by Oliver Parker, the film stars Rob Brydon as a man who in the midst of a midlife crisis joins an all-male synchronised swimming group, alongside Adeel Akhtar, Jim Carter, Rupert Graves, Daniel Mays, Charlotte Riley, Thomas Turgoose, Jane Horrocks, and Nathaniel Parker; watch it here…

Faced with a full-blown mid-life crisis, accountant Eric (Rob Brydon) joins an all-male group of synchronised swimmers and discovers that making patterns in a pool can, for a couple of hours at least, gives him escapism from the bumps in his work and marriage. Initially keeping their personal lives in the locker, the ramshackle squad and coach Susan slowly begin to reveal their inner lives, as well as their paunches. But can they get their routines, not to mention their lives, in sync as they embark on an unlikely journey to Milan to compete in the World Championship?

Swimming with Men is set for release on July 6th in the UK.
