Trailer for ‘Twinless’ Gives First Look at One of the Most Acclaimed Films from Sundance

The first trailer for Twinless has been released online. Written and directed by James Sweeney, the movie stars James Sweeney, Dylan O’Brien, Lauren Graham, Aisling Franciosi, Chris Perfetti, and Tasha Smith.

Here is the plot synopsis:

“In Twinless, two young men meet in a twin support group and form an unlikely friendship. Roman (Dylan O’Brien) and Dennis (James Sweeney) both search for solace and an identity without their other halves and soon become inseparable outside the group. But when Roman meets Dennis’ ebullient co-worker, Marcie (Aisling Franciosi), all is revealed to be not what it seems, as each man harbors secrets that could unravel everything.”

Our editor-in-chief, Joey Magidson, had a chance to see the movie at Sundance this year and said that “Twinless has an edge to it, but also plenty of sweetness. That combination is hard to pull off, especially when there’s a mid-movie turn that’s fairly shocking. However, the comedy, the drama, and the emotions of it all never feel anything less than authentic. It’s dark and messy, to be sure, but it’s also very well done, making for an entertaining and supremely compelling work.” You can read his full thoughts on the movie here.

You can watch the trailer below and see the film only in theatres on September 5:
