Arsema Thomas and Darrell Britt-Gibson strike up an unforgettable romance in She Taught Love.

The new film, written by Britt-Gibson and directed by Nate Edwards, debuts Sept. 27, and PEOPLE has an exclusive first look, including the emotional trailer.

Britt-Gibson stars as Frank Cooper, an actor known for a prestigious TV series called The Street who is now “coasting through life distracting himself with women, booze and blow, while auditioning to play stereotypical gang members and drug dealers,” per a synopsis.

But, as the synopsis teases, the “minute he meets Mali Waters (Thomas), a sports agent living for the present, his whole world changes.”

“Despite their own worst instincts, Mali and Frank are inescapably drawn to one another,” the synopsis continues. “As Mali is forced to face her own mortality, the clock begins to tick. The two must learn to rely on each other, choosing to love and live for the moment, even if that’s all they get.”

The rest of the cast includes American Horror Story star Taissa Farmiga, Insecure star Alexander Hodge, The Good Place star D’Arcy Carden and The Bear star Edwin Lee Gibson.

She Taught Love is in select theaters and on Hulu September 27.

Magnolia Pictures has acquired North American rights to The Gutter, a bowling comedy starring Shameik Moore (Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse), D’Arcy Carden (The Good Place) and Susan Sarandon (The Fabulous Four), from the project’s producer and financier, Village Roadshow Pictures.

The film, directed by Yassir Lester (The Carmichael Show) & Isaiah Lester (Black-ish), will be released in theaters and on demand on November 1, after premiering at SXSW.

The Gutter watches as the frequently fired Walt (Moore) lands a position tending bar and de-roaching shoes at his local bowling alley AlleyCatz, feeling like he’s finally found a home. When money issues threaten AlleyCatz, Walt is pressured by former pro-bowler and current champion drinker Skunk (Carden) to accept his role as the greatest bowler ever put on this earth. While Walt’s love of big checks and in-your-face style of play dominates the pro tour, his detractors, including ratings-obsessed news anchor Angelo Powers (Paul Reiser) and fresh-out-of-retirement bowling-legend Linda “The Crusher” Curson (Sarandon), furiously attempt to snuff out Walt’s flame before it burns too bright.

Written by Yassir Lester and produced by Liz Destro, the film also stars Jay Ellis (Top Gun: Maverick), Kim Fields (The Upshaws), Jackée Harry (Sister, Sister), Paul Scheer (Twisters), Adam Pally (Mr. Throwback) and more. Exec producers are Jared Hess, Helen Estabrook, and Village Roadshow’s Tristen Tuckfield, Jillian Apfelbaum, and Nic Gordon.

Said Magnolia Pictures’ co-CEOs, Eamonn Bowles and Dori Begley, “Joining a lineage of absurd, riotous bowling comedies, THE GUTTER knocks them down in grand style. We’re excited to be rolling this out in November.”

Added the filmmakers, “We are grateful and humbled to work with a prestigious film distributor like Magnolia Pictures. We are excited to get this insane movie out into the world. See you in November!”

SVP of Acquisitions John Von Thaden negotiated the deal on behalf of Magnolia Pictures, with Village Roadshow, CAA, and UTA on behalf of the filmmakers.

Will Forte (The Last Man on Earth, Bodkin) and D’Arcy Carden (The Good Place, Barry) have been cast as leads in darkly comic drama series Sunny Nights for Australian streamer Stan. As we revealed in March, Trent O’Donnell is directing and exec producing, and Echo Lake Entertainment is among the producers.

Sunny Nights will follow siblings Martin (Forte) and Vicki (Carden) Marvin who venture to Sydney determined to start their spray tan business. When they get caught up in the city’s criminal underworld, they must figure out how to stay alive, out of prison and in the black. It’s billed as “a story of how a little bit of sun, a change of scenery, and a touch of violent crime can help a person find their true self.”
