Production house Searchlight Pictures dropped the trailer video of A Real Pain, starring Kieran Culkin and Jesse Eisenberg in lead roles, on Wednesday.
The trailer shows how Benji (Culkin) and David (Eisenberg) play a foil to each other on screen, with one being extroverted and the other a bit reserved. While the scenes showing how both find it hard to tolerate each other evoke laughter, they become emotional when paying respects to their grandmother, who is a Holocaust victim.
The film, written and directed by Eisenberg earlier this year, bagged the Waldo Salt Screenwriting Award at the Sundance Film Festival.
A teaser of the film, which will release on October 18, was unveiled this June.
Jennifer Grey, Will Sharpe, Kurt Egyiawan, Liza Sadovy, and Daniel Oreskes round out the cast of A Real Pain. Ali Herting, Dave McCary, Ewa Puszczynska, Jennifer Semler, Eisenberg, and Emma Stone are the producers of the project.
