| Zusammenfassung: | In the high school sex comedy, which premiered at SXSW, two lesbian students - played by Rachel Sennott (The Idol) and Ayo Edebiri (The Bear) - are so eager to lose their virginity that they start an after-school fight club, all in the hopes of seducing cheerleaders. Due out Aug. 25 from Orion Pictures and MGM, the raucous movie is director Emma Seligman's follow-up to her Independent Spirit Awardwinning debut, Shiva Baby, in which Sennott (who co-wrote Bottoms) played a bisexual Jewish woman who attends a shiva where both her ex-girlfriend and current sugar daddy are present. Seligman, who uses she and they pronouns, spoke with THR about making the film, her own identity and her thoughts on authentic casting for LGBTQ roles. What are your thoughts on authentic casting for LGBTQ roles? |
