ComingSoon is excited to debut the exclusive Surprise! trailer for Freestyle Digital Media‘s upcoming romantic comedy starring Melanie Thompson and Bryce Harrow.
“The film tells the story of a surprise birthday party, which is really a surprise engagement, that gets repeatedly derailed because of, not despite, the best intentions of all the guests,” reads the film’s official synopsis. “Ethan throws a surprise birthday party for his girlfriend Jane, with plans to propose before the night ends, but despite all his careful planning, things quickly go awry. In SURPRISE!, sibling rivalries cause conflict, exes show up uninvited, and Grandma even stops by to take back the family ring – but will Ethan ever make it down onto one knee? Luckily, Ethan and Jane’s friends are as compassionate as they are chaotic, and they help the couple to find their way to a happy ending.”
