Chris Pine and Jenny Slate are kicking off the 2026 Sundance Film Festival with their movie Carousel!

The co-stars hit the red carpet at the premiere on Thursday night (January 22) at the Eccles Center Theater in Park City, Utah.

They were joined at the event by co-star Abby Ryder Fortson, who plays Chris‘ daughter in the movie, and writer-director Rachel Lambert.

In an interview with AP, Chris opened up about working with Jenny.

“We just had an immediate affinity for one another,” he said. “Jenny is so smart, and I’m sort of a lover of smart people, so immediately she had me. And she likes to laugh and she makes me giggle. So we just had a really, really easy time getting to know one another.”

Here’s the movie’s synopsis: “Noah’s settled life caring for his anxious daughter and medical practice is disrupted when his high school ex Rebecca returns. Their old spark remains, making them question if love deserves another chance.”

Stay tuned for more Sundance coverage!
