First Trailer and Poster for THE FIVE-YEAR ENGAGEMENT Starring Jason Segel and Emily Blunt [UPDATED]

Universal has debuted the first trailer for The Five-Year Engagement. Directed by Nicholas Stoller (Forgetting Sarah Marshall) and produced by Judd Apatow, the film follows a young couple’s extended engagement and the ups and downs they experience along the way. The trailer looks pretty great, as it’s very much what you’d expect from an Apatow production. Parks and Recreation‘s Chris Pratt had me cracking up by the first 10 seconds, and Jason Segel and Emily Blunt look to have some superb comedic chemistry. Segel and Stoller co-wrote the pic and I’m really liking the feel of this “relationship comedy” so far. The supporting cast doesn’t hurt as well, with Alison Brie, Mindy Kaling, and Jacki Weaver rounding out the cast.

Hit the jump to check out the trailer and poster. If you missed Steve’s interview with Stoller where he talked about the test screening process of the film (which sounds very positive) click here. The Five-Year Engagement opens April 27th. [Update: We've been sent a high resolution version of the poster and two images which are now included after the jump].

Here’s the official synopsis for The Five-Year Engagement:

The director and writer/star of Forgetting Sarah Marshall reteam for the irreverent comedy The Five-Year Engagement.  Beginning where most romantic comedies end, the new film from director Nicholas Stoller, producer Judd Apatow (Knocked Up, The 40-Year-Old Virgin) and Rodney Rothman (Get Him to the Greek) looks at what happens when an engaged couple, Jason Segel and Emily Blunt, keeps getting tripped up on the long walk down the aisle.  The film was written by Segel and Stoller.

  1. i’ll just say this. these fictional people make a great fictional couple. if there’s even a hint of fictional cheating or crushing on someone else i’ll be so actually devastated that it’ll ruin the movie for me. really.

  2. Jason Segal may be a goofy-looking schlub, but he has co-starred with some hot ladies. Emily Blunt, Kristen Bell, Amy Adams, Miss Piggy…

    I guess it pays to be talented and funny?

  3. “when was the last time you were on a treadmill?” Damn! His look after that was like my crazy black mama’s before she snapped my jaw!
    LOL!

  4. This looks so great! I already feel connected to the characters just from this trailer, also anyone laugh as hard as me when the arrow went in her leg
