“You are here for work, not for play.” Prime Video has revealed an official trailer for a romantic comedy called Upgraded, arriving for streaming this February. Yet another Valentine’s Day romance offering from Hollywood, trying to get as many love stories out there by February 14th. This film follows Ana, an aspiring art intern who is invited on a last-minute work trip to London by her super boss, meeting the handsome and wealthy William (aka Will) on the plane. He mistakes Ana for her boss – a white lie that sets off a glamorous chain of events, romance and opportunity, until her fib threatens to surface. Camila Mendes stars as Ana, with Archie Renaux as Will, Marisa Tomei as her real boss Claire, Thomas Kretschmann, Gregory Montel, Aimee Carrero, Andrew Schulz, Rachel Matthews, with Lena Olin. This looks like exactly what A.I. would create to check every box that streaming viewers desire in a cheesy & empowering romcom.
Here’s the main official trailer (+ poster) for Carlson Young’s Upgraded, direct from PV’s YouTube:
