Here’s why the movie is gonna be worth all the hype.

The trailer looks fun and feisty:

The fans were given the first glimpse at the movie during the Cinema Con 2023. The teaser trailer was also included in the preview of the “Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour” movie, during its first week of release in theaters. On October 19, the one-minute teaser was released online. The plot of the movie, however, became clear after the release of the official trailer on November 16. With the release of this trailer, the promising story and the undeniable on-screen chemistry between Sydney and Powell captured the attention of a huge audience.

The trailer of this rom-com is set on Olivia Rodrigo’s “Bad Idea Right” and has got all the fun and spice. It gives us a peek into the story, where the two protagonists, after having a fiery first date, somehow hate each other. They then have an unexpected encounter at a wedding in Australia, where their fake dating ends up in real love.

The Stirring Enemies to Lovers Trope:

The movie’s greatest cause of anticipation is the amusing storyline featuring two people who loathe each other and fake a relationship in front of their families and exes, and end up falling for each other. The story is inspired by William Shakespeare’s “Much Ado About Nothing”. This movie is a screwball comedy with many twists and turns, and is a complete entertainment package, bringing the classic rom-com genre back to the screen.

The Amazing Cast of the Movie and their Chemistry:
