Just when you thought it was impossible to love the love between President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama more than you already do, the trailer for the upcoming film Southside With You entered our lives. The biopic focuses on the day-long activities between the POTUS and FLOTUS’ first date in 1989. Tika Sumpter (Michelle) and Parker Sawyers (Barack) brilliantly play the leading roles as the future First Family and helps to bring the inception of their love story to life.

The film initially made its debut in January at the Sundance Film Festival. After meeting sparkling reviews, Southside with You is making its way to a theater near you in August. Richard Tanne, director and screenwriter, compiled research of different mediums piecing together moments of the Obama’s first date to accurately depict what took place on that fateful summer day.

Sumpter who is also serving as a co-producer for the film told ABC News she was inspired by their love story and is glad the film does not focus on politics or the Obamas we have grown to know. Many couples, like the Obamas, share their first date stories but it is rare that you are actually taken along for the ride.

The trailer alone is enough to get your emotions running so we can only imagine what the full-feature will bring.
