DreamWorks Pictures has released the first trailer for the comedy/drama People Like Us (formerly known as Welcome to People) starring Chris Pine, Elizabeth Banks, Michael D’Addario, Olivia Wilde, Mark Duplass, and Michelle Pfeiffer. Set for a June 29th release, People Like Us marks the directorial debut of Star Trek and Transformers screenwriter Alex Kurtzman, who also wrote the script with Roberto Orci and Jody Lambert.
The Plot:
From DreamWorks Pictures comes “People Like Us,” a drama/comedy about family, inspired by true events, starring Chris Pine (“Star Trek”) as Sam, a twenty-something, fast-talking salesman, whose latest deal collapses on the day he learns that his father has suddenly died. Against his wishes, Sam is called home, where he must put his father’s estate in order and reconnect with his estranged family.
In the course of fulfilling his father’s last wishes, Sam uncovers a startling secret that turns his entire world upside down: He has a 30-year-old sister Frankie whom he never knew about (Elizabeth Banks). As their relationship develops, Sam is forced to rethink everything he thought he knew about this family — and re-examine his own life choices in the process.
