KiKi Layne stars as an aspiring singer-songwriter who falls in love in the trailer for IFC Films’ Dandelion.

The new trailer promises an unconventional take on a musical love story with the Don’t Worry Darling star and Thomas Doherty playing two people who find love and artistic support within each other. According to the synopsis via AMC Networks:

Dandelion (KiKi Layne), a struggling but determined Cincinnati singer-songwriter in a downward spiral reluctantly takes a last ditch effort gig at a motorcycle rally in South Dakota where she meets Casey, a guitarist who walked away from his dream long ago. As Dandelion joins Casey’s eclectic and nomadic group of struggling musicians, the two kindred spirits make music together and strike up an intoxicating whirlwind romance that moves Dandelion from an obsession with results and a narrow view of success to a deeper appreciation of her artistic journey and the discovery of a voice that is authentically her own.

Also starring Melanie Nicholls-King, Dandelion is directed by Nicole Riegel and opens in theaters July 12.

Lane said at the time of the film’s announcement in 2022, “I’m very excited to bring forth a story about the resilience of the human spirit and magic of serendipity taking center stage. Music is an integral part of my life, so being able to merge the two worlds with my passion of acting is a dream come true, and I’m thrilled to be in partnership with IFC Films.”
