Gina Rodriguez and Tom Ellis are Players in trailer for Valentine’s rom-com

January 13, 2024 by Ricky Church

Netflix has released a trailer for its upcoming Valentine’s Day rom-com Players starring Gina Rodriguez (Jane The Virgin) and Tom Ellis (Lucifer). Directed by Trish Sei (The Sleepover) from a script by Whit Anderson, the film sees Rodriguez as a player who begins to fall for her latest hook-up against the rules she and her friends have set up. Watch the trailer below…

New York sportswriter Mack has spent years devising successful hook-up ‘plays’ with best friend Adam and their crew. While it has led to countless one-night stands over the years, following their playbook comes with a strict set of ground rules — chief among them: you can’t build a relationship from a play. When Mack unexpectedly falls for her latest target, charming war correspondent Nick, she begins to rethink the game entirely. As the lines between work, fun, friendship, and romance begin to blur, Mack must learn what it takes to go from simply scoring to playing for keeps.

Players stars Gina Rodriguez (Jane The Virgin), Tom Ellis (Lucifer), Damon Wayans Jr. (New Girl), Joel Courtney (Jesus Revolution), Augustus Prew (The Morning Show), Liza Koshy (Transformers: Rise of the Beasts), Ego Nwodim (Good Burger 2) and Marin Hinkle (The Marvelous Ms. Maisel).

Players will premiere on Netflix February 14th, 2024.
