There really is no way to make a thriller about pregnancy without having it compared to Rosemary's Baby, so I appreciate False Positive director John Lee not even trying to obscure the Woodhouse-iness here in the first trailer for the Hulu Original hitting that streamer on June 25th. Starring Broad City super-stah Ilana Glazer as a young woman impregnated by her perfect husband... or was she, dun dun dun??? Justin Theroux wearing preppy sweaters let's you know something is wrong right off the bat...
... but damn if he doesn't make you feel as conflicted about Evil Baby Schemes as John Cassavetes did back in the day. Hey maybe just let them have this one? The baby I mean. Babies are a dime a dozen, but hot husbands don't come along every damn day. Unfortunately for Ilana she's also got a hot OB-GYN (played by Pierce Brosnan) who cannot take his eyes off said same hot husband...
That gif somehow feels like the dirtiest gif I have ever made in my entire gif-making life, and I have made some dirty doozies. Anyway I don't want to venture too deep into spoiler territory -- maybe some of you don't want to watch the trailer, which gives away a lot, and me shoving gifs in your face is an affront to your delicate nature? To y'all I apologize but I would simply be derelict in my duties if I didn't share the flashes in said trailer of Theroux making out with shirtless (grand) daddy Pierce Brosnan...
False Positive hits Hulu on June 25th. Any thoughts, people?
Besides how you'd allow Justin Theroux to steal your baby, I mean.

I loved this movie; it had some weaknesses but the layers made up for those. In particular, the relationship between Adrian and John. Quite a few clues indicate that Lucy has major intuition and was not just 'crazy'. Yes, by the end of the movie she essentially needs psychiatric care, but her abusive husband and his former Prof./crush. This is yet another example of why you don't sleep with your college mentor. lol lol But even if that was not a theme; she didn't know her husband at all. Which I found to be the most disturbing fact of the film. The slow reveal of being at the mercy of strangers.
