Orion Pictures has released the first official Bottoms poster for its upcoming raunchy teen comedy, starring Bodies Bodies Bodies‘ Rachel Sennott and The Bear’s Ayo Edebiri. The film had its world premiere at the 2023 SXSW Film Festival, and is set to arrive in select theaters on August 25.
The poster is a callback to 1985’s The Breakfast Club signature group photo, featuring Sennott and Edebiri. It also provides a first look at the rest of the main cast including Kaia Gerber and Havana Liu Rose.
Who’s Involved in Bottoms?
Bottoms is directed by Emma Seligman from a screenplay she co-wrote with Sennott. They previously worked together in Seligman’s 2020 directorial debut Shiva Baby. The film stars Rachel Sennott, Ayo Edebiri, Havana Rose Liu, Kaia Gerber, Nicholas Galitzine, with Dagmara Dominczyk and Marshawn Lynch.
“A refreshingly unique raunchy comedy, the film focuses on two girls, PJ and Josie, who start a fight club as a way to lose their virginities to cheerleaders. Their bizarre plan works,” reads the synopsis. “The fight club gains traction and soon the most popular girls in school are beating each other up in the name of self-defense. But PJ and Josie find themselves in over their heads and in need of a way out before their plan is exposed.”
The R-rated film is produced by Elizabeth Banks, Max Handelman, and Alison Small, with Ted Deiker serving as an executive producer. It will also feature music from Charli XCX and Leo Birenberg.
