Universal Pictures just released the first trailer for The Photograph starring Issa Rae (HBO’s Insecure) and Lakeith Stanfield (FX’s Atlanta).

Written and directed by Stella Meghie, The Photograph follows a story of Mae Morton (Rae) and rising-star journalist Michael Block (Stanfield), who connect in a Valentine’s Day romance.

When famed photographer Christina Eames unexpectedly dies, she leaves her estranged daughter Mae hurt, angry and full of questions. When a photograph tucked away in a safe-deposit box is found, Mae finds herself on a journey delving into her mother’s early life and ignites a powerful, unexpected romance with Block.

The film also stars Chanté Adams (Roxanne Roxanne) as Mae’s young mother Christina, Y’lan Noel (HBO’s Insecure) as Christina’s secret love, and Rob Morgan (Mudbound) as Isaac Jefferson, a New Orleans fisherman with a mysterious connection to Mae’s mother.

The Photograph is produced by Will Packer (Girls Trip, Night School, Think Like a Man) and his Will Packer Productions. The film is executive produced by Meghie, Erika Hampson (co-producer Late Night, Life Itself) and Rae.

The movie will hit theaters on Valentine’s Day. Watch the full trailer above!
