More details about Materialists and where you can watch

Materialists (released June 13, 2025) is a romantic comedy-drama that scrutinizes modern relationships through the eyes of Lucy Mason, a high-end matchmaker in New York City. Lucy helps clients find partners based on curated lists of traits often tied to wealth and status while maintaining her own rigid romantic standards. At a wedding, she unexpectedly meets John, her longtime ex who now works as a cater-waiter and still dreams of acting, and Harry, a wealthy and suave financier who embodies everything Lucy claims she wants. Torn between what looks good on paper and what feels genuine, Lucy’s journey becomes an emotional exploration of vulnerability, self-worth, and what truly matters in love. The film blends introspection with cultural critique and strong performances from its cast.

Did You Know

Despite being marketed as a romantic comedy, Materialists was so emotionally intense and introspective that many critics and fans argued it feels more like a psychological drama about modern dating culture and emotional alienation than a typical feel-good rom-com, placing it stylistically closer to A24’s more serious films like Past Lives or existential relationship cinema rather than traditional Hollywood romance fare.
