Check out the newly released trailer for the upcoming Netflix film Good Grief starring Emmy Award-winning out actor Dan Levy (Schitt’s Creek). The dramedy also marks Levy’s debut as a feature film writer and director. The official synopsis reads:
Marc (Dan Levy) was content living in the shadow of his larger-than-life husband, Oliver (Luke Evans).
But when Oliver unexpectedly dies, Marc’s world shatters, sending him and his two best friends, Sophie (Ruth Negga) and Thomas (Himesh Patel), on a soul-searching trip to Paris that reveals some hard truths they each needed to face.

“I lost my grandmother toward the tail end of the pandemic, and I was in a very strange headspace in terms of feeling the weight and the profound sense of tragedy of what the COVID pandemic had done for all of us, while at the same time trying to honor the passing of someone who meant so much to me,” says Levy, who also lost his dog in close proximity.
“It was hard for me to feel the specificity of loss when all I was feeling was grief for so long,” he added. “It was that conversation that really expedited the concept of the movie.”
