Screen Rant has the exclusive trailer and poster reveal for the upcoming film, The Time Capsule. The FilmRise release, which will come to select theaters and on demand June 3, is a sci-fi romance that follows a down-and-out politician named Jack (played by One Day at a Time's Todd Grinnell) who accidentally reunites with his first love, Elise (Brianna Hildebrand, who first broke out in the Deadpool film franchise). She has just returned from a 20-year space voyage, and yet somehow has not aged a day.
Nursing a wounded ego from his recent failed political campaign and tired from trying to save his marriage to controlling wife, Maggie (portrayed by Private Practice's KaDee Strickland), Jack takes refuge in his family’s summer lake house. The place where he spent much of his teenage years suddenly becomes an even stronger reminder of the past when his ex-girlfriend arrives looking exactly the same as the day she left on a mission to outer space. The question then becomes: will Jack get a second chance with his first love, or will he use those lessons to work on his present marriage?
