“I’m not doing this is there’s a side-piece baby momma, absolutely not!” Vertical has revealed the official trailer for The Threesome, a funny sex comedy from filmmaker Chad Hartigan (Morris from America, Little Fish). This first premiered at the 2025 SXSW Film Festival earlier this year, with stops at many other fests, and it opens in theaters this September. A young man’s perennial crush leads him into an unexpected threesome – he thinks it’s his ultimate fantasy come true. (Obviously…) When the fantasy ends, all three are left with sobering real-world consequences and they must take responsibility for their actions. An impulsive night leads to a wild threesome between Olivia, Connor, and Jenny, leaving both women facing unexpected surprises, thrusting all three right into the raw and beautifully messy chaos of adulthood. The trailer reveals what’s really going on in here – it’s not that big of a surprise. Starring Zoey Deutch, Jonah Hauer-King, and Ruby Cruz as the trio, along with Jaboukie Young-White, Josh Segarra, Robert Longstreet, Arden Myrin, and Kristin Slaysman. There are a bunch of actually hilarious jokes and one-liners in this trailer – I laughed way more than I was expecting. So this might actually be a really good modern rom-com?
Here’s the official trailer for Chad Hartigan’s comedy film The Threesome, from Veritfcal’s YouTube:
One fateful night, the stars seemingly align for Connor (Jonah Hauer-King) — a kind and unassuming young man — as his long-time crush — the electric & irreverent Olivia (Zoey Deutch) — steers them into a threesome with a sweet and alluring stranger (Ruby Cruz). The encounter sparks a relationship between Connor and Olivia and their love grows quickly, all the way toward planning a life together. But their happy romance is soon demolished when Jenny reappears in their lives, thrusting all three into a difficult and messy journey towards true accountability & adulthood. The Threesome is directed by the acclaimed Cyprus-born, Irish-American filmmaker Chad Hartigan, director of the films Luke and Brie Are on a First Date, This Is Martin Bonner, Morris from America, and Little Fish previously, as well as a few shorts and a doc film.. The screenplay is written by Ethan Ogilby. Produced by Tim White, Trevor White, Vince Jolivette, Steve Shapiro. This initially premiered at the 2025 SXSW Film Festival earlier this year. Vertical will debut Hartigan’s The Threesome film in select US theaters starting September 5th, 2025 coming up. Who’s in?
