Materialists is directed and written by Celine Song. It is produced by David Hinojosa, Christine Vachon, Celine Song, and Pamela Koffler under the banner of 2 AM and Killer Films.
Plot overview
Materialists focuses on a prestigious matchmaker named Lucky, played by Dakota Johnson in New York, who views love as a transaction, yet her personal romantic life gets messy. She is caught between two men: a prosperous, accomplished financier, Harry (Pedro Pascal), and her charismatic, yet struggling ex-boyfriend, John (Chris Evans). The movie delves into whether individuals develop affection for authentic reasons or for shallow traits such as wealth and social standing, transforming it into a more reflective character analysis than a standard romantic comedy.
