Searchlight

Searchlight has premiered the official teaser trailer for “Is This Thing On?,” a new dramedy from actor-turned-filmmaker Bradley Cooper.

Marking his third film following “A Star is Born” and “Maestro,” the film stars Will Arnett, Laura Dern, Andra Day, Bradley Cooper, Amy Sedaris, Sean Hayes, Christine Ebersole, CiarĂ¡n Hinds and Scott Icenogle.

Will Arnett stars as Alex, a man whose marriage quietly unravels. As he faces middle age and an impending divorce, he seeks new purpose in the New York comedy scene.

Meanwhile, his wife Tess (Laura Dern) confronts the sacrifices she made for their family – forcing them to navigate co-parenting, identity, and whether love can take a new form.

Cooper, Arnett and Mark Chappell penned the script for the film which will serve as the closing night selection of the upcoming New York Film Festival.

“Is This Thing On?” will arrive exclusively in cinemas in December.
