Is This Thing On?

NEW RELEASE
    Part of
  • BAM Film 2026
Directed by Bradley Cooper (2025)
With Will Arnett, Laura Dern, Andra Day, Bradley Cooper, Amy Sedaris, Sean Hayes, Christine Ebersole, Ciarán Hinds, Scott Icenogle
As their marriage quietly unravels, Alex (Arnett) faces middle age and an impending divorce, seeking new purpose in the New York comedy scene while Tess (Dern) confronts the sacrifices she made for their family—forcing them to navigate co-parenting, identity, and whether love can take a new form. Bradley Cooper writes, directs, and co-stars in this understated, affecting portrait of the challenges and opportunities of starting over in middle age.
