The first trailer for Amy Poehler’s new Netflix movie, Moxie, has arrived. The movie features Poehler playing the mother of a 16-year-old girl who publishes a magazine in her high school that leads to a lot of drama and controversy around sexism and toxicity.
Here is the official description for the film, which premieres on Netflix on March 3:
“Fed up with the sexist and toxic status quo at her high school, a shy 16-year-old finds inspiration from her mother’s rebellious past and anonymously publishes a zine that sparks a school-wide, coming-of-rage revolution.”
Moxie is based on the novel of the same name by Jennifer Mathieu. This is Poehler’s second film for Netflix, as she previously directed and starred in Wine Country.
Moxie stars Hadley Robinson as Poehler’s daughter. The cast also includes Lauren Tsai, Patrick Schwarzenegger, Nico Hiraga, Sydney Park, Josephine Langford, Clark Gregg, Josie Totah, Alycia, Pascual-Peña, Anjelika Washington, Charlie Hall, Sabrina Haskett, Ike Barinholtz, and Marcia Gay Harden.
