Watch David Duchovny in 'The Joneses' trailer

Derrick Borte’s directorial debut “The Joneses" will hit theaters April 16, 2010, and a new trailer for the comedy is now online. You can check it out after the jump. "The Joneses" debuted at festivals last year, and I hear it's been picking up some critical acclaim.

The film focuses on a seemingly perfect family that moves into a suburban community and leaves an excellent first impression with the neighbors. Truth is however that they are a fake family sent to live among consumers in order to promote new luxury products.

The idea is timely, for sure, and judging by this trailer, it's also a funny film boasting solid acting performances. I always enjoy watching David Duchovny on the big screen. The same goes for Amber Heard, who co-stars with Demi Moore and Gary Cole. Trailer below.

David Duchovny, Demi Moore join ‘The Joneses’

David Duchovny, Demi Moore and Amber Heard will team up to star in Derrick Borte’s directorial debut “The Joneses,” according to the Hollywood Reporter.

The film focuses on a seemingly perfect family that moves into a suburban community and leaves an excellent first impression with the neighbors. Truth is however that they are a fake family sent to live among consumers in order to promote new luxury products.

Duchovny is set to play the dad, who’s battling a personal crisis because he finds it hard to live a lie. Moore plays the wife, who slowly develops real feelings for her fake husband. Heard is the daughter who’s on the lookout for a rich guy.

Sounds awesome to me at this stage. Duchovny has the perfect face to play this kind of guy, and I remember he and Gillian Anderson once did a totally convincing job playing a fake couple in one “The X-Files” episode. I’m not sure about Moore as the choice for his wife though.

Duchovny was last seen in Chris Carter’s “The X-Files: I Want to Believe,” and Moore recently starred in “Flawless,” which I remember was partly shot in my hometown of Luxembourg. As for Heard, she recently appeared in “Pineapple Express.”
