"We only get a few chances for meaningful relationships in life." A24 has debuted a
second trailer for
The Invite, an amusing comedy-drama directed by actress
Olivia Wilde – her third film after
Booksmart and
Don't Worry Darling. This originally premiered at the 2026 Sundance Film Festival earlier this year where it picked up some rave reviews (

Joe and Angela's marriage is on thin ice. When they invite their enigmatic upstairs neighbors for a dinner party, the night spirals into unexpected places. Set entirely in one apartment it follows these two couples through a night they'll both never forget. Starring
Seth Rogen &
Olivia Wilde as Joe & Angela and
Penélope Cruz &
Edward Norton as Pína & Hawk. Opening in theaters this
