“Divorce” Unveils First Trailer

 

Divorce is a new, half-hour comedy series that centers on Frances, an everyday wife and mother who longs to bring an end to her stifling marriage, but quickly begins to realize that the grass isn’t always greener on the other side.

Played here by Sarah Jessica Parker, it’s really Thomas Haden Church’s unsuspecting hubby Robert that is the source for much of the comedy in this early promo. Also starring Molly Shannon, Talia Balsam, and Tracy Letts, Divorce is, according to Parker, about mining the comedic aspects of an otherwise ridiculous situation.

Sarah Jessica Parker will file for a Divorce when HBO’s freshman series premieres on October 9.
