'The Invite' trailer: Hilarious situations unfold when Seth Rogen, Oscar Wilde call neighbours for dinner party

The makers of the critically acclaimed film 'The Invite' have finally released the trailer of the movie, which is directed by Olivia Wilde. It stars the director herself along with Seth Rogen, Penelope Cruz and Edward Norton.

The part-drama, part-comedy penned by Will McCormack and Rashida Jones, is set to follow Joe and Angela, a married couple on thin ice. The situation takes a drastic and funny turn when they invite their neighbours, Edward Norton and Penelope Cruz, for dinner.

"When they invite their enigmatic upstairs neighbours for a dinner party, the night spirals into unexpected places. Have they reignited the spark or lit the match that burns it all down?" reads the official logline.

The film is set for a limited theatrical release by the distributor on June 26. The official distributor of the film shared the trailer on their social media handle.

When 'The Invite' debuted at Sundance in January, it captivated audiences and distribution companies.

"Seth and I both have directed films that we've been acting in as well. Inevitably, you come to moments where you say, 'This was a terrible decision,'" said Norton in a closing Q&A. "It's hard for me to overstate the grace and wisdom with which Olivia gave that performance and directed us," as quoted by Variety.




'The Invite' marks Wilde's third time as a director, following 'Booksmart' in 2019 and 'Don't Worry Darling' in 2023 (Wilde also acted in the latter as the character of Bunny). She also stars in 'I Want Your Sex' from director Gregg Araki opposite Cooper Hoffman, an erotic thriller which also debuted at Sundance earlier this year.

'The Invite' is produced by David Permut, Ben Browning and Megan Ellison. It will run 107 minutes and earned an R rating.Get the latest entertainment updates from the Times of India, along with the latest Hindi movies, upcoming Hindi movies in 2026 , and Telugu movies.”
