The First Trailer For Zola Is Every Bit as Wild as the 148-Tweet Thread It's Based On

-

The highly anticipated trailer for A24's Zola is finally here and it was definitely worth the wait. Written by Janicza Bravo and playwright Jeremy O. Harris, and based on an infamous 148-tweet thread, the film follows waitress Zola as she meets a sex worker named Stefani, who convinces Zola to join her on a cross-country road trip to make as much money as possible. Of course, nothing goes to plan and Zola soon finds herself trapped on the wildest trip of her life.

The trailer absolutely delivers with all the outlandish moments brought to life by Taylour Paige's Zola and Riley Keough's Stefani. Surprisingly, the most unexpected moment for me was hearing Nicholas Braun utter "schmoney" as Stefani's boyfriend, Derrek. Rounding out the cast are Colman Domingo as Stefani's pimp, X; Ari'el Stachel as Sean; Jason Mitchell as Dion; Nelcie Souffrant as Gail; and Ts Madison as Hollywood. Trust me when I say you're not ready for this film. If you'd like to try to be, you can catch the full trailer above.

A 20-year-old astrophysics and economics student from New Haven, CT, Jack Atkins made quite the first impression in The Circle season two premiere. He tells viewers straight off, "I'm honestly down to go down as the biggest villain in Circle history. I don't really care." I mean, an intro package doesn't get much better than that. Kudos, Jack! Or shall we say . . . Emily? In the first episode, we learn Jack is here to play a "very strategic, manipulative, cutthroat game." Being a college student, Jack says he's a self-declared nerd but with a wild, goofy side. Nervous his authentic personality (and BDE) might cost him the $100,000 prize, he enters The Circle group chat as Emily, a girly girl from the Windy City, who also happens to be a close friend of his IRL. Jack explains in his confessional that he wants fellow competitors to look at his profile and go "'That's a face I can trust.'" "When it comes to strategy ther...

What Selling Tampa Tells Us About Diversity in Real Estate and Selling Sunset

-

When it comes to reality TV on Netflix, Selling Sunset is prime real estate (pun intended). Season four dropped on Nov. 24 , and a brand-new spinoff, Selling Tampa , followed on Dec. 15. Unlike Selling Sunset , which follows the drama behind the elite real estate brokerage firm The Oppenheim Group , Selling Tampa spotlights a Florida-based, women-led, Black-owned business, Allure Realty. The show adds much-needed representation to Netflix's real estate reality TV lineup. But Selling Tampa 's creation compels us to take a hard look at Selling Sunset and the representation among its agents in an industry that lacks diversity. In its first season, the cast of Selling Sunset was all white. Agents like Amanza Smith (a mixed-race Black woman) and Vanessa Villela (who is Mexican) joined The Oppenheim Group in seasons two and four, respectively, but most of the nine women dishing the drama on screen on Selling Sunset remain white. Looking at the numbers, this isn't too far ...
