Lovers of romantic comedies, get set! Actors Dakota Johnson, Pedro Pascal, and Chris Evans will soon be featured in a humorous love story involving a complex New York City love triangle. The film, titled “The Materialists” by A24, blends elements of romance, social status, and humor.
Dakota Johnson As A Matchmaker Caught In Her Own Drama
Dakota Johnson portrays Lucy, a prosperous matchmaker in bustling New York who assists affluent patrons in finding romance but grapples with her own intricate love life. The plot thickens when she encounters an emotional quandary, caught between two contrasting gentlemen: John, her captivating yet cash-strapped ex-beau, portrayed by Chris Evans, and Harry Castillo, a wealthy and considerate new suitor embodied by Pedro Pascal. This narrative explores the complexities of contemporary dating, as individuals frequently grapple with the challenge of reconciling their personal principles with the pursuit of stability, prosperity, and genuine affection.
Celine Song Brings Her Real–Life Experience

Prior to her career as a director, she worked as a matchmaker in New York City. Her personal experience in that field lends an authentic touch to the film’s portrayal of romance, social class, and power relations.
The movie is filmed using 35mm, thereby imparting a reminiscent, 90s-style romantic comedy ambiance, yet it also delivers a contemporary narrative that explores modern perspectives on love.
