Together Trailer Featuring Alison Brie and Dave Franco
NEON has released the trailer for the highly anticipated body horror film Together, which will open in theaters on August 1, 2025. The film premiered in the Midnight section of the 2025 Sundance Film Festival on January 26.
Years into their relationship, Tim and Millie (Dave Franco and Alison Brie) find themselves at a crossroads as they move to the country, abandoning all that is familiar in their lives except each other. With tensions already flaring, a nightmarish encounter with a mysterious, unnatural force threatens to corrupt their lives, their love, and their flesh.
Michael Shanks wrote and directed the film. In addition to Dave Franco and Alison Brie, Together stars Damon Herriman as Jamie. 30West, Tango Entertainment, and Picturestart produced and financed the film.
The producers include Mike Cowap, Andrew Mittman, Erik Feig, Julia Hammer, Tim Headington, Max Silva, Alison Brie, and Dave Franco. Emma Fitzsimons, Laura Waters, Kai Dolbashian, Micah Green, Daniel Steinman, Sarah Hong, Samie Kim Falvey, Sian McArthur, Lia Buman, and Neil Shah are the executive producers.
“Most simply, this is a film about how falling in love transforms you,” said writer and director Michael Shanks in a statement. “I’ve been with my partner for over 15 years and, having met at ‘schoolies’ (a tragic Australian equivalent of Spring Break), I’ve never been an adult without her in my life and vice versa. For as long as I can remember, we’ve lived in the same house, had the same friends, eaten the same food, breathed the same air…
“This is a film about the potential horror of sharing a life with someone; the lingering anxieties of commitment writ large. It’s about co-dependency, monogamy, romances and resentments — and that at a certain point, can we truly tell where one life ends and our other half’s begins?
“What draws me into a project is finding a one-off, hooky premise, and squeezing that premise for all its juice. Despite the personally resonant and (hopefully) realistically observed characters at the centre of this story, I am so proud how we escalate the horror into things I’ve never seen before on screen and – basically — get a bit fucked with it.
“This has been such a wonderful opportunity to play with all the cinematic tools I’ve dreamed of since my DVD-featurettes obsessed childhood. Purely on a technical level, there are things I was able to play with in this production that I still can’t believe.
“Our cast – lead by Dave Franco and Alison Brie – could not have been more committed to the project, and gave themselves wholly to a breakneck, incredibly physical production. Their real-life, long term relationship adds a deep layer of authenticity to these characters which are already informed by my own experience.
“Dave and Alison are the glue that holds this film together and I’m forever grateful they took a chance on my first feature.
“I hope this story will not only please my fellow genre freaks, but will resonate with anyone who has been through the crucible of falling in love and sharing your life.
“The opportunity to make this film and to work with this team, this cast, and this crew has been an impossible dream come true, and it’s a privilege to finally share our work with an audience, especially at Sundance.”
