The first trailer for Downhill, the American remake of 2014’s funny and perceptive international film Force Majeure, is here and it looks like a real winner.
Will Ferrell and Julia Louis-Dreyfus play a husband and wife on a family ski retreat, whose marriage hit a bumpy patch when Ferrell’s character panics and flees what he thinks is a dangerous avalanche, leaving his family behind. It has all the usual comedy beats one would expect from two comedians of Ferrell and Louis-Dreyfus’ caliber but also looks to have some real insights into marital conflict.
The movie drops on Valentine’s Day.
