Recently, the makers of Together dropped a nearly one-minute and 15-second-long clip. It features its two protagonists, played by Alison Brie and Dave Franco, sharing an intense moment. The video begins with the girl, Millie, asking her husband, Tim, to give her a little massage. As she slowly begins to massage her back, Tim goes into a trance and clutches her back tighter than usual. The video abruptly cuts with her scream.

Franco has mainly been an actor, but he has had his tryst with the horror genre. He made his directorial debut with the 2020 horror film The Rental. In Together, he is teaming up with his real-life wife and actor Alison Brie.
Brie spoke to Vanity Fair about working with Franco in the film.
“It's easy for us to relate to this main idea that people can lose their identity in a relationship. When you’ve been with someone for a really long time, sometimes it’s difficult to tell where your personality ends and your partner’s begins.”
Franco then added,
“Nearly every scene in this movie is dealing with heightened emotions and extreme physicality. We knew going in that it would either end in divorce or we’d be more codependent than ever.”
Michael Shanks, who is making his directorial debut with this film, said:
“There comes a time, I think, in every kind of long-term relationship where we realize, Wow, I’ve been with this person more than I’ve not been with this person. And we live in the same house, we breathe the same air, we eat the same food, we have the same friends. At a certain point we think, I don’t know who I am without her. She maybe doesn’t know who she is without me.”
