The first trailer for James L. Brooks' new romantic comedy "How Do You Know" has debuted online, and you can check it out after the jump. The film stars Paul Rudd, Reese Witherspoon and Owen Wilson.

Written by Brooks, the film stars Witherspoon as a woman caught in the middle of a love triangle. Rudd and Wilson are the ones fighting for her heart. Supporting cast includes Jack Nicholson.

I can't say I'm in love with this trailer, but I'm glad it doesn't show too much. Brooks hasn't done anything since his "Spanglish" in 2004. He also helmed "As Good As it Gets." "Know" opens Dec. 17, 2010.
