A final trailer for Book Club has been released and it looks like the film might be perfect alternative viewing for moviegoers who won’t be seeing Deadpool 2 on May 18.
The trailer gets straight to the point about why people should go see the movie: “Every so often,” the voiceover exclaims, “there’s a reason to go to the movies. Here’s four.” And before any narrative seeds are planted, the names of the film’s leads are splashed on the screen: Mary Steenburgen, Diane Keaton, Jane Fonda and Candice Bergen.
The film focuses on a group of friends who discover new romances and rekindle old ones after reading S&M-lite novel Fifty Shades of Grey. Keaton plays Diane, who is recently widowed after 40 years of marriage; Fonda is the free-spirited Vivian, who buys the group copies of the book; Bergen plays Sharon, who is still processing a decades-old divorce; and Steenburgen is Carol, whose 35-year marriage is in a rut. Don Johnson, Andy Garcia, Craig T. Nelson and Richard Dreyfus also star.
