HOLLYWOOD, LOS ANGELES -- The new comedy, "Splitsville," is all about relationships.

There's one loving husband, one cheating wife and one open marriage!

Dakota Johnson is one of the stars of "Splitsville." It's a very R-rated comedy that might keep you wondering what could possibly happen next?

"We wanted the story to be told in a way that you never quite feel comfortable with what's happening," said Johnson. "And I think we achieved that."

Adria Ajorna co-stars in the film.



"She goes on this wild adventure and meets all these different characters and gets kind of touched and moved by them."

And at one point, filmmakers Kyle Marvin and Michael Angel Covino, who also co-star in the movie, give us one wild fight on screen.

"We were definitely beating each other up," said Marvin.

"It was probably more practical than it needed to be," said Covino." There was some bumps and bruises and cuts for sure!"

Michael directed the movie, and the two wrote it together. They are also in the film's boldest scenes that each wrote for the other.



"Well, we have two writers so I get to write the ones that I think would make him really uncomfortable," said Covino.

"And I'm writing him. So, we can push each other. It's pretty helpful," said Marvin.

"Splitsville" is new to theaters Friday.
