I Want You Back Trailer: Charlie Day & Jenny Slate Lead Amazon’s Rom-Com

Prime Video has debuted the official I Want You Back trailer for Amazon Studios’ latest romantic comedy film, starring Charlie Day and Jenny Slate. The film will be available for streaming on February 11, just in time for Valentine’s Day.

The video features two broken-hearted strangers as they help each other out by dealing with their individual break-ups together which will eventually lead them to plan how they’ll be able to get the love of their lives back. It highlights their desperate attempts at destroying their exes’ newest relationships.

I Want You Back is directed by Jason Orley (Big Time Adolescence) from a screenplay written by Love, Simon writing duo Isaac Aptaker, and Elizabeth Berger. The film stars Charlie Day (It’s Always Sunny in Philadephia), Jenny Slate (Obvious Child), Gina Rodriguez (Something Great), Scott Eastwood (The Longest Ride), and Manny Jacinto (A Good Place).

“Peter and Emma are total strangers, but when they meet, one thing instantly bonds them: they were both unexpectedly dumped by their respective partners, Anne and Noah, on the same weekend,” reads the synopsis. “As the saying goes, ‘misery loves company,’ but their commiseration turns into a mission when they see on social media that their exes have happily moved on to new romances, Anne with Logan and Noah with Ginny.

“Terrified that, in their 30s, they have lost their shot at happily ever after and horrified at the prospect of having to start over, Peter and Emma hatch a desperate plot to win the loves of their lives back. Each will do whatever it takes to put an end to their exes’ new relationships and send them running back to their arms.”

Joining them are Clark Backo (Letterkenny), Mason Gooding (Booksmart), Dylan Gelula (Flower), Jami Gertz (The Lost Boys), Isabel May and Luke David Blumm.

I Want You Back is a production by Amazon Studios, The Safran Company, and The Walk-Up Company. It is produced by Aptaker, Berger, Peter Safran, and John Rickard.
