Amazon Studios and IFC Films have released the trailer for writer-director Todd Solondz’s dark comedy “Wiener-Dog”. You can also see the poster below.
“Wiener-Dog” will open on June 24 and stars Ellen Burstyn, Kieran Culkin, Julie Delpy, Danny DeVito, Greta Gerwig, Tracy Letts and Zosia Mamet.
The film aims to offer a dark, starkly funny story of a single dog and the many different people she touches over her short lifetime. Man’s best friend starts out teaching a young boy some contorted life lessons before being taken in by a compassionate vet tech named Dawn Wiener. Dawn reunites with someone from her past and sets off on a road trip. After leaving Dawn, Wiener-Dog encounters a floundering film professor, as well as an embittered elderly woman and her needy granddaughter, all longing for something more.
