Scarlett Johansson Unveils Directorial Debut Trailer of 'My Mother’s Wedding'

While Scarlett Johansson is set to enter the world of dinosaurs in 'Jurassic World Rebirth' next week, another of her projects is generating buzz. The long-anticipated drama 'My Mother’s Wedding', featuring Scarlett Johansson and Sienna Miller, has finally unveiled its first official trailer, giving audiences a glimpse into the emotional family story that’s been years in the making. The movie, previously titled 'North Star', tells the story of three sisters reuniting for their mother’s third wedding. As they return home, unresolved family tensions force them to confront emotional baggage they’d rather leave buried.

The movie has been awaiting distribution since it premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival nearly two years ago. Vertical Entertainment has now acquired distribution rights and confirmed a release date of 8th August, resolving previous delays.
