August Moon singer Hayes Campbell stars in the upcoming film 'The Idea of You,' where he plays the character of Hayes, the front man of the band. The movie, based on Robinne Lee's novel of the same name, follows the unexpected romance between 40-year-old single mom Solène Marchand, portrayed by Anne Hathaway, and the 24-year-old musician Hayes.
In the recently released trailer, viewers get a glimpse of the passionate relationship between Solène and Hayes, as well as the challenges they face due to their significant age difference. The trailer also features moments that mirror scenes from the book, such as a romantic beach vacation and a public backlash against their relationship.
One highlight of the trailer is the first listen to August Moon's song 'Dance Before We Walk,' which sets the tone for the film. Fans have drawn comparisons between Hayes and former One Direction member Harry Styles, but author Robinne Lee clarified that Hayes was not specifically inspired by Styles.
In an interview, lead actor Nicholas Galitzine expressed his excitement about the movie's portrayal of female pleasure and the unconventional age gap love story between Solène and Hayes. 'The Idea of You' is set to premiere on May 2 via Prime Video, following its debut at South by Southwest (SXSW) on March 16.
