Ticket to Paradise trailer reunites Julia Roberts and George Clooney in their rom-com return
Julia Roberts is making her triumphant return to the rom-com after more than 20 years since her last one.
The iconic actor stars in the first trailer for Ticket to Paradise, a new film that reunites her with her Ocean's Eleven co-star George Clooney. Watch the full official trailer above.
Directed by Ol Parker (Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again, The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel) and filmed in Queensland last year before production abruptly halted earlier this year due to the state's COVID-19 outbreak, Ticket to Paradise stars Roberts and Clooney as two long-divorced parents who impulsively married each other. When their daughter Lily (Kaitlyn Dever) heads on a post-graduation trip to Bali and decides to marry a local, the two fly out to Indonesia to talk her out of making the same mistake they once did.

The trailer highlights the strained relationship between the two characters, even as they attempt to join forces for the sake of their daughter.
"Worst 19 years of my life," Clooney says during an exchange in the trailer, to which Roberts replies, "We were only married for five."
"I'm including the recovery," he fires back.
