Monica Barbaro and Callum Turner will soon head to the Empire State for their next feature! The filming of the romantic comedy drama ‘One Night Only’ will take place in New York starting early October this year. Will Gluck will direct based on a screenplay he adapted from Travis Braun’s Black List script. The movie is slated to be released on August 7, 2026.
The story is set in a society where pre-marital sex is made legal for one annual 12-hour window. Owen, a dejected pizza chef, gets dumped by his girlfriend, who wants to be with someone else. Allie, a frantic personal assistant, is heartbroken after his date doesn’t show up. The paths of these two people cross in a messy way, and though the initial sparks fizzle away, fate brings them back after a night of mishaps, including robberies and arrests. As the 12-hour window closes, Owen and Allie realize they have one last chance at making the most of the year’s only opportunity for intimacy, challenging societal norms.
Monica Barbaro was recently seen in two big feature films, namely ‘The Complete Unknown,’ where she played real-life singer Joan Baez; and ‘Top Gun: Maverick,’ where we saw her as pilot Natasha ‘Phoenix’ Trace.
