M3GAN’s lovebot counterpart will not get her chance to shine on the big screen. Last year, Universal dropped SOULM8TE, a spinoff film, from its theatrical slate. The erotic thriller is about a man who gets an AI droid to cope with the loss of his wife. He attempts to fashion a sentient partner but instead ends up with a deadly soulmate. Sounds familiar? It probably does if you’ve seen Companion. Now, SOULM8TE will head straight to digital platforms versus theaters on August 1, and we have a trailer for this film.

Things go exactly how you’d imagine they would in this clip. We meet a lonely man named David who starts to use his techie brain to tweak a humanoid bot. Why? Because he finds the interactions and expressions of it to be “limited.” Well, after he tweaks this pretty droid, she starts to become obsessed with him, saying she loves him and watching him in his sleep. Predictably, an actual woman comes into a grieving David’s life (hello Victoria Neuman from The Boys!) and his new soulmate is not happy at all.

She starts to get violent and deadly with anyone whom she feels stands in her way of having David all to herself. After watching the SOULM8TE trailer, it makes sense why they decided to bring this film to streaming. This feels wholly ridiculous and like a film you should watch at home with a good snack and beverage. It would be hard for this type of film to compete against major blockbuster releases, too.

SOULM8TE will be available to watch through your preferred at home platform on August 1.
