First trailer for Obama date movie 'Southside With You' Debuts
The first look at the Barack Obama college movie has arrived.
Southside With You follows a young Barack and Michelle Obama on their first date through out a particularly hot day in Chicago.
Tika Sumpter and Parker Swayers star as future President and first lady in the directorial debut for writer-director Richard Tanne.
"I wonder if I can write books or hold a position of influence in Civil rights," says Barry, in the trailer.
The film premiered at this year's Sundance Film Festival, with The Hollywood Reporter review calling it a "perceptive, intelligent, entirely credible imagining of how these two very bright young lawyers broke the ice during a long afternoon and evening in Chicago in 1989."
Southside With You will hit theaters August 19.
