Nothing says "We absolutely know how to take normal photos together because EVERYTHING IS FINE" quite like.... whatever this is. Honestly, I just think Ashton is overthinking it now. The premise of the movie means they probably barely shot together (they're in different cities; it's an apartment swap sort of thing, like The Holiday if Cammy D and Kate Winslet had ended up together, which actually would have been a better movie).

with Tig Notaro

Reese's dress is cute, but also looks like it OUGHT to be a coat -- a nice one, which she would wear in the Thanksgiving Day parade, but still a coat. (Tig always looks good.)

Ashton is a goober with Tig, too, so I think he's also just kinda awkward with these things right now? He's also not that far removed from a debilitating case of vasculitis, which hit him during Covid.

with Zoe Chao and Jesse Williams

I don't... LIKE Zoe's outfit, exactly? But it's unusual, and on-theme for a rom-com, so that's something. It sort of looks like a screen saver someone would have designed for themselves in 2001.

This poster, which has Reese and Ashton standing in between themselves, DOES make for awkward pics. Especially when he's looking at her, as he does in the ad, and she's staring elsewhere just as SHE does in the ad. This is a very odd rom-com pairing, to be sure. Reese and Mila, now, that would work.
