Chris’ production company Barry Linen Motion Pictures has announced the upcoming release of Doula, a comedy starring Troian Bellisario that will be released to digital and on-demand on June 20, 2022. Collider had the opportunity to speak to Chris about the movie and he mentioned that “Making Doula was a dream come true. It’s written by one of our best friends, directed by one of our best friends, starring a bunch of our best friends. The film was a ton of fun to make, and we hope audiences see that when they’re watching it.”
He’s set to appear in the movie as well, playing Deb’s doctor. Thanks to Chris Pine Daily we are able to show you the trailer of the movie, and you can also find the full synopsis from it below.
The film, directed by Cheryl Nichols, will follow Deb (Troian Bellisario) and her new boyfriend Silvio (Arron Shiver), on their whirlwind pregnancy journey. Hoping to explore alternative birth methods, the couple hires a midwife named Penka to help them through labor. However, when Penka dies unexpectedly, Silvio takes things into his own hands, hiring Penka’s son Sascha (Will Greenberg), as a replacement. Oh, and Sascha will be living with the nesting family as well. And while Deb is at first hesitant about the decision, she soon grows close to Sascha, maybe too close for Silvio’s liking. As Silvio starts to feel excluded from his own relationship, he will begin to control Deb’s pregnancy, leading to an explosive fight that will force Deb to choose between the father of her child and her newly formed friendship.
Here is the trailer for Doula, directed by Cheryl Nichols and produced by Chris Pine! It’s premiering at the Seattle International Film Festival on April 20th.
