The new trailer for the dramatic film Jackie & Ryan starts off with Ben Barnes’ character busking on a street corner, which makes complete sense since Barnes is playing a musician. Directed by Ami Canaan Mann, the cast also includes Katherine Heigl, Clea DuVall, Ryan Bingham, Cheryl Lee, and Emily Alyn Lind. Entertainment One’s aiming for a July 3, 2015 theatrical release.
The Plot:
Ryan Brenner (Ben Barnes), a traveling musician, and Jackie Laurel (Katherine Heigl), a former singer at a crossroads in her marriage, have a chance encounter while Ryan is busking on the streets of Ogden, Utah. After a sudden car accident propels them together, Ryan finds himself at Jackie’s house for dinner. Ryan’s battling to find the courage to write his own music while Jackie’s fighting for independence from her estranged husband who wants her to return to their upscale Manhattan marriage.
When Ryan’s musician mentor dies in a train accident and Jackie’s husband threatens to take custody of her daughter, Ryan and Jackie find the strength and music they need in each other. What they don’t know is, if the paths they choose will lead to one another.
