Amy Schumer Explodes with Confidence in This Funny Trailer For I FEEL PRETTY
If you're a fan of comedian Amy Schumer (Trainwreck), then I've got a trailer here for her new film that you might enjoy. The comedy is called I Feel Pretty and it follows an average woman dealing with low self-esteem and insecurity problems. As the story progresses, that suddenly all changes for her. After an accident in a gym, she starts looking at herself in a new extremely confident light. She's oozing with so much confidence that she believes she is an amazingly beautiful woman who can do anything, and she's loving it.
This is actually a fun concept and it looks like the filmmaking team did a solid job pulling it off. The movie actually looks like it will be pretty funny. Here's the synopsis:
Renee Bennett (Amy Schumer) knows what it feels like to be average looking in New York city – a city of the genetically and financially blessed. After falling off her bike and banging her head during a spin class, she stumbles in the locker room and it is there that she first sees what has happened – her legs are toned, her hair is silky, her chin is defined – she is GORGEOUS. Except that, to everyone else, she looks EXACTLY THE SAME.
Even though her appearance hasn’t changed AT ALL – Renee’s new belief in herself sees her climbing the ranks at the cosmetics company she works for, getting the respect of her impossibly beautiful boss Avery LeClair (Michelle Williams), bagging a cute boyfriend in Ethan and getting invited to rooftop parties.
With her new confidence comes overconfidence, and even the tendency to treat the ‘less genetically fortunate’ in the same dismissive way that people used to treat her. Eventually Renee believes the spell has been lifted – and finally realizes that when she thought she was ugly, she may have been the most beautiful, and when she believed she was beautiful, she had started to turn a bit ugly. She learns that true beauty is not skin deep.
The movie also stars stand-up comedian Rory Scovel who plays her boyfriend. It also stars Emily Ratajkowski, Aidy Bryant, Busy Philipps, Michelle Williams, Tom Hopper, and Laura Hutton.
I Feel Pretty arrives in theaters this summer on June 29, 2018.
