A first look at Sofia Coppola's upcoming new film 'On The Rocks' has been released in a new feature with Entertainment Weekly, which stars Bill Murray and Rashida Jones as father and daughter.

The film (Coppola's eighth feature) is set for release in October in theatres and on Apple TV+, and Coppola describes it to EW as "something that was a little bit lighter and more playful with a lot of heart and sincerity."

About working with Bill Murray again, Coppola shares: "I never thought I could do something with Bill again, because people have such a fondness of him and Lost in Translation. I could never recreate something like that, so I never wanted to touch it. But, all this time has passed, and I loved working with him and I love seeing him in film. We haven’t really seen him as this debonair, playboy father at this stage [of life], so I just had to get over it because now we’re in a different phase [of life]."

Rashida Jones says about working with Coppola: "Sofia has a quiet power and elegance that I have been in awe of since the first time we met. I had a lot in common with the character [of Charlotte in Lost in Translation] at the time, struggling with my identity and loneliness in a relationship. It was such a formative acting experience for me to dig into a character that deeply. Sofia and I have had a lot of parallel emotional milestones and On the Rocks represents that, too."
