After That's My Boy tanked at the box office, we're sure Andy Samberg wants to forget about his first post-Saturday Night Live project and focus on his next project, Celeste and Jesse Forever. Today, we get the first trailer for this Sundance darling and we think it's safe to say that Samberg's batting average at the box office should improve.
Samberg and Parks and Recreation star Rashida Jones (who also co-wrote the screenplay) play best friends and soul mates . . . who just happen to be divorcing. Here's the full synopsis:
Celeste (Jones) and Jesse (Samberg) met in high school, married young and are growing apart. Now thirty, Celeste is the driven owner of her own media consulting firm, Jesse is once again unemployed and in no particular rush to do anything with his life. Celeste is convinced that divorcing Jesse is the right thing to do — she is on her way up, he is on his way nowhere, and if they do it now instead of later, they can remain supportive friends. Jesse passively accepts this transition into friendship, even though he is still in love with her. As the reality of their separation sets in, Celeste slowly and painfully realizes she has been cavalier about their relationship, and her decision, which once seemed mature and progressive, now seems impulsive and selfish. But her timing with Jesse is less than fortuitous. While navigating the turbulent changes in their lives and in their hearts, these two learn that in order to truly love someone, you may have to let them go.
