15 may 2025 mk2 Films Boards Michael Cera’s Directorial Debut ‘LOVE IS NOT THE ANSWER’

mk2 Films handles international sales for Michael Cera’s feature directorial debut,

LOVE IS NOT THE ANSWER

A sharp, absurdist comedy that moves between hilarity and heartbreak, exploring modern loneliness and the need for connection.

Best known for his unique blend of emotional vulnerability and dry wit (The Phoenician Scheme, Barbie, Juno, Superbad), Cera directs from his own script, with a standout ensemble cast including Pamela Anderson, Steve Coogan, Fred Hechinger, and Jamie Dornan.

The film is produced by 2AM (Past Lives, Babygirl, Materialists).

Love Is Not The Answer marks an exciting new creative chapter for Cera, who also stars in Wes Anderson’s Competition title The Phoenician Scheme, premiering this week in Cannes.

2AM and CAA Media Finance to handle North American sales.
