Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt's Romantic Drama 'By The Sea' Gets Release Date!

Checkout below the first official photos from Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s romantic drama 'By The Sea,' written and directed by Angelina Jolie. The film co-stars Niels Arestrup and Richard Bohringer.

Set in 1970s France, Vanessa (Jolie) and her husband Roland (Pitt) seem to be growing apart, but when they move to a seaside town they begin to draw close to some of its more vibrant inhabitants. Jolie and Pitt last co-starred in 2005’s Mr. & Mrs. Smith.

Universal Pictures has set a November 13, 2015 release date for the romantic drama. 

Here are the first look photos from the movie:

Universal Pictures chairman Donna Langley added: "I was struck by the fact that [Angelina] and Brad are willing to bring such a brave endeavour to screen and take audiences on this raw, emotional journey that’s simultaneously of its moment and surprisingly timeless."

Plot:
"Set in France during the mid-1970s, Angelina Jolie plays Vanessa, a former dancer, and Brad Pitt is her husband Roland, an American writer. As they travel the country together, they seem to be growing apart, but when they linger in one quiet, seaside town they begin to draw close to some of its more vibrant inhabitants, such as a local bar/café-keeper (Niels Arestrup, “War Horse,” “A Prophet”) and hotel owner (Richard Bohringer “The Cook, the Thief, His Wife, and Her Lover”)."

“I chose to set ‘By the Sea’ in the 1970s, not only because it is a colorful and alluring era, but because it removes many of the distractions of contemporary life and allows the focus to remain squarely on the emotions that the characters experience in their journey,” Jolie, who wrote the script and is directing, said in a statement to EW.
