Zola is coming!
The film, which was inspired by a viral Twitter thread in 2015, released its first trailer on Wednesday (March 31).
The movie is set to hit theaters on June 30, and was directed by Janicza Bravo and co-written with Jeremy O. Harris.
Here’s a plot summary: “The film centers on the dynamic between the title character, played by newcomer Taylor Paige, and Stefani (Riley Keough). It is based on a 2015 Twitter thread that took the internet by storm despite being only 148 words long. The tweets were by A’ziah King, who was then a 20-year-old Hooters waitress. She wrote about her chance encounter with a stripper and the resulting two-day Florida road-trip bacchanal involving prostitution, murder and a violent pimp known simply as Z.”
The film also stars Nicholas Braun, Ari’el Stachel and Colman Domingo.
Zola had its world premiere at the 2020 Sundance Film Festival.
Taylour also starred in another recent film that is getting a lot of acclaim.

Broadway shows have been shut down since March 13, 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic. The shutdown was supposed to end in January 2021, but now will be extended as the pandemic is still not under control and it’s not safe for thousands of people to sit in an indoor theater together.
