A teaser trailer has been released for the film Daddio, a drama that seems to mostly take place in a taxi. The film stars Dakota Johnson (The Peanut Butter Falcon, Madame Web) and Academy Award-winner Sean Penn (Milk, Mystic River). The movie is written and directed by Christy Hall in her feature directorial debut after developing and producing the series I Am Not Okay with This.
The film’s synopsis reads:
“Dakota Johnson plays a woman who steps into a New York cab at the airport, driven by a man played by Sean Penn. She’s clearly preoccupied and just wants to get home. He’s a curbside philosopher. Immediately, he engages her in conversation which starts in small talk then gets bigger, deeper, and riskier as he steers her to her destination.”
This looks like it may be a really sweet and interesting movie. Sean Penn is one of my favorite actors, and Dakota Johnson has had a few really great performances in her career as well. Daddio premiered at the Telluride and Toronto Film Festivals last fall, and will hit theaters this summer. Check out the trailer below:
