Bill Murray and Rashida Jones star in trailer for Sofia Coppola’s On the Rocks

August 20, 2020 by Amie Cranswick

A24 and AppleTV+ have released a poster and trailer for writer-director Sofia Coppola’s comedy drama On the Rocks which follows Laura (Rashida Jones), a young mother that reconnects with her larger-than-life playboy father (Bill Murray) when he helps her tail her husband (Marlon Wayans) who she suspects may be cheating on her; take a look here…

A young New York mother faced with sudden doubts about her marriage teams up with her larger-than-life playboy father to tail her husband. What follows is a sparkling comic adventure across the city—drawing father and daughter closer together despite one detour after another. Acclaimed filmmaker Sofia Coppola brings a light touch to this blend of an exuberant love letter to New York, a generation-clash comedy about how we see relationships differently from our parents, and a funny celebration of the complications that bind modern families even as they tie us in crazy knots. Laura (Rashida Jones) thinks she’s happily hitched, but when her husband Dean (Marlon Wayans) starts logging late hours at the office with a new co-worker, Laura begins to fear the worst. She turns to the one man she suspects may have insight: her charming, impulsive father Felix (Bill Murray), who insists they investigate the situation. As the two begin prowling New York at night, careening from uptown parties to downtown hotspots, they discover at the heart of their journey lies their own relationship.

On the Rocks is set for release in theaters and on Apple TV+ in October.
