Kristen Stewart and Steven Yeun explore the meaning of life… like a buoy and a satellite in the new trailer for Love Me.
The film was first announced in 2021, and Stewart teased E.W. in 2023, ‘It’s actually a love story between a satellite and a buoy; It’s hard to explain.
“I hope I don’t spoil it, because it’s a script written in a really revolutionary way,” he added at the time.
Now Bleecker Street has released the first trailer for the film, which had its world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival in January 2024.
Almost a year later, the film will hit theaters on January 31 and takes place after the extinction of humanity on Earth.
With everyone on the planet gone, this buoy (Stewart) and satellite (Yeun) explore the depths of humanity with everything the Internet left behind as a guide.

“Life is people with a dog eating ice cream,” says Deja, which stuns the buoy, as this buoy and the satellite eventually become versions of Deja and Liam.
“Here we can create a world just for ourselves,” Deja tells Liam as they explore the meaning of life together on this unlikely journey.
They begin to recreate Deja and Liam’s lives through animation as Deja insists, “Have you ever thought about how impossible it was for us to meet?”
‘Life is full of rainbows and intense. I’m not even a buoy anymore. “It’s just me,” Deja insists.
“We’re becoming who we are,” Liam insists as the trailer shows several shots of their recreated lives.
