'Irreplaceable You' Trailer With Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Kate McKinnon, More

Valentine’s Day is coming up, and Netflix is hoping that among their original content, you’ll want to curl up and chill with your special sweetheart and watch….a cancer rom-com? Uh, ok.

As befalls the fate of many Netflix original productions, “Irreplaceable You” is being marketed just a couple weeks out from release. The movie comes from director Stephanie Laing, veteran producer of “Eastbound & Down,” “Veep,” and “Vice Principals,” among others. She is making her feature debut with this picture. She rounds up Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Michael Huisman, Christopher Walken, Kate McKinnon, Steve Coogan, Jacki Weaver, and Timothy Simons for this tale about a young woman who faces possibly life threatening cancer, and tries to help her partner prepare to find another woman before she dies. Romantic! Here’s the official synopsis:

Newly engaged Abbie (Gugu Mbatha-Raw) and Sam (Michiel Huisman) have been the love of each other’s lives since childhood. But when the future they envisioned together takes a tragic turn, their relationship is put to the ultimate test.

“Irreplaceable You” hits Netflix on February 16th.
