CBS Films has released the first trailer and poster for director Justin Baldoni’s (Jane the Virgin) feature directorial debut Five Feet Apart. The romantic drama stars Haley Lu Richardson (The Edge of Seventeen) and Cole Sprouse (Riverdale) as Stella and Will – two teenagers with cystic fibrosis who fall in love while living in a hospital, alongside Moises Arias (Ben-Hur), Kimberly Hébert Gregory (Vice Principals), Paraminder Nagra (ER), and Claire Forlani (Precious Cargo); take a look here…
Stella Grant (Haley Lu Richardson) is every bit a seventeen-year-old…she’s attached to her laptop and loves her best friends. But unlike most teenagers, she spends much of her time living in a hospital as a cystic fibrosis patient. Her life is full of routines, boundaries and self-control – all of which is put to the test when she meets an impossibly charming fellow CF patient named Will Newman (Cole Sprouse).
There’s an instant flirtation, though restrictions dictate that they must maintain a safe distance between them. As their connection intensifies, so does the temptation to throw the rules out the window and embrace that attraction. Further complicating matters is Will’s potentially dangerous rebellion against his ongoing medical treatment. Stella gradually inspires Will to live life to the fullest, but can she ultimately save the person she loves when even a single touch is off limits?
