“Oops‚ two people tried to get into the same cab at once” is not a scene you’ve never seen before … but in Molli and Max in the Future‚ it happens a little differently. This is in part because‚ as the title may have tipped you off‚ it’s in the future. Also‚ Max (Aristotle Athari) and Molli (Zosia Mamet) already know each other. It’s less a meet-cute than a meet-again. And then again. And again.
Also‚ there are space cults. And Max is dating a robot.
Here’s the synopsis:
A charming‚ unexpected mix of When Harry Met Sally by way of Futurama‚ Molli and Max in the Future is the story of a woman (Zosia Mamet‚ The Flight Attendant‚ Girls) and a man (Saturday Night Live‘s Aristotle Athari) whose orbits repeatedly collide over the course of twelve years‚ four planets‚ three dimensions‚ and one space cult.Created by a group of friends‚ featuring hundreds of handmade sets and otherworldly backdrops‚ and made with nothing but unabashed love for romantic comedies‚ this plucky‚ lo-fi misadventure blasts the “meet-cute” into deep space while perfectly – and adorably – tackling the ups and downs of Earthbound relationships.
Mamet and Athari are both also executive producers on the film‚ which is directed by Michael Lukk Litwak (Snatchers).
If you look up the word “quirky” in the dictionary‚ you probably find this trailer—but that’s a good thing! We live in a world of extremely serious science fiction‚ where things tend to get real life-and-death real fast‚ and there is room for quirkiness and play and‚ yes‚ rom-coms. It’s all too rare that we get to have fun in space. Let us have this.
Molli and Max in the Future is in theaters February 9th.
