Get ready for a hilarious ride, ladies! The official trailer for the highly anticipated R-rated teen queer comedy ‘Bottoms’ has finally arrived. Starring Ayo Edebiri and Rachel Sennott as the unlikely duo, Josie and PJ, this film is set to deliver a satirical and entertaining story that will have you laughing out loud.
Directed by Emma Seligman, ‘Bottoms’ made its debut at the prestigious South by Southwest (SXSW) Film Festival on March 11th and has since received critical acclaim for its clever humor and talented ensemble cast. The movie follows the journey of Josie and PJ, two unpopular gay teens, who decide to create a fight club in an effort to impress their cheerleader crushes before graduation. Joining Edebiri and Sennott on screen are the talented Punkie Johnson, Marshawn Lynch, and Miles Fowler.
This isn’t the first time Edebiri and Sennott have teamed up to deliver comedic gold. In 2020, they starred together in the mini-series ‘Ayo and Rachel Are Single,’ which focused on the dating lives of their fictional counterparts. Their chemistry and comedic timing are sure to shine once again in ‘Bottoms.’
What makes ‘Bottoms’ truly groundbreaking is the fact that it centers around two queer female leads in a high school comedy genre. This modern take on the genre brings a fresh perspective and makes the film a must-see for this summer. It’s a milestone for LGBTQ representation in mainstream cinema, and we couldn’t be more excited.
Mark your calendars, as ‘Bottoms’ will hit select theaters on August 25, 2023, with additional cities joining the release on September 1, 2023.
