Splitsville Shines At Cannes
Adria Arjona took to Instagram on the night of her film’s debut at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival to celebrate a milestone moment. The Puerto Rican–Mexican actress attended the Cannes premiere of Splitsville, directed by Michael Angelo Covino, alongside co-stars Dakota Johnson and Kyle Marvin. Shot in picturesque coastal settings, Splitsville explores friendship, love and the unexpected detours life throws at two best friends—one of whom Arjona portrays as Ashley.
Heartfelt Gratitude On Social Media
In a post on May 16, Arjona shared a gallery of red-carpet snaps. “SPLITSVILLE premiere at @festivaldecannes! The most special night with the most special people,” she wrote, tagging Covino (@macovino), Johnson (@dakotajohnson), Marvin (@kylemarvin) and “Emily.” She continued, “@macovino you brilliant man thank you for making me your Ashley. So grateful to you @kylemarvin @dakotajohnson and Emily. So proud of this film and everyone in it. I’ll never forget it.” Arjona closed her caption by noting she was thrilled to share the evening with her partner, @prideofgypsies ❤️.

Casting And Crew Praise
Splitsville boasts an ensemble that includes Dakota Johnson, Kyle Marvin, Nicholas Braun, David Castañeda, O-T Fagbenle, Simon Webster and Charlie Gillespie. Covino, who co-wrote the script, leads his cast through comedic turns and heartfelt scenes. Arjona’s shout-out to “Emily” highlights the camaraderie behind the camera—whether Emily is a key crew member or a producer, her inclusion underscores the collaborative spirit of the shoot.
Arjona has built a versatile résumé with roles in HBO’s True Detective: Night Country and Disney+’s Andor, and she made her feature debut opposite James Franco in 2014. Her Cannes appearance marks another high point as she navigates both indie films like Splitsville and major studio series.
What’s Next For Splitsville
Following its Cannes bow, Splitsville is set for a wider release later this summer. An Instagram update confirms, “Following its #Cannes2025 premiere, Michael Angelo Covino’s SPLITSVILLE… will open in theaters August 22.” (https://www.instagram.com/p/DJHjaOTRUdz/)
As anticipation builds, Arjona’s post offers a peek at the personal pride fueling the project—gratitude for her director, pride in her castmates and joy in sharing the spotlight with her partner. With the world premiere under its belt and a theatrical date on the horizon, Splitsville is poised to be one of Cannes’s feel-good breakout hits.
Filled with charming performances, sun-drenched cinematography and the kind of warmth that sparkles on the Croisette, Splitsville finds its heroine, Ashley, at the center of a story about holding on, letting go and finding beauty in the messiness of connection—qualities Arjona herself embodied in her Cannes celebration.
