Jason Segel and Cameron Diaz star as a married couple whose private sex tape is leaked in Jake Kasdan’s new rom-com, Sex Tape.

The new UK trailer, released today, promises a fast-paced and inevitably disastrous race to keep Jay and Annie’s dodgy video for their eyes only.

Expect screams of panic and embarrassment at regular intervals, break-ins involving vicious dogs, desperate vodka shots, seriously dubious Y-fronts and a best friend who tells Jay that, had she been Annie, she would have “killed him in his sleep”.

“Mum, there are some things you should die just never knowing,” Annie tells her concerned mother.

The official synopsis reads: “When Jay and Annie first got together, their romantic connection was intense – but ten years and two kids later, the flame of their love needs a spark."

In an effort to relight the fire, the couple decide to make a raunchy video of themselves trying out every single position in The Joy of Sex in one three-hour session. But their fun, if slightly ridiculous, idea backfires when their cringeworthy shoot is made public.

Sex Tape marks the second time that Diaz and Segel have teamed-up for an on-screen romance after 2011’s Bad Teacher. It is due to hit UK cinemas on 5 September.
