Trailer for Lily James' Hulu Biopic Film SWIPED About the Dating App Revolution
20th Century Studios and Hulu have released the first trailer for the biopic film Swiped, starring Emmy nominee Lily James (Baby Driver, Pam and Tommy, The Iron Claw).
Swiped introduces recent college grad Whitney Wolfe Herd, played by James, as she uses grit and ingenuity to break into the male-dominated tech industry and launch an innovative, globally lauded dating app. The film will follow the rise of the online dating platform Bumble, and Wolfe’s journey to becoming the youngest female self-made billionaire. Swiped will touch on Wolfe’s time at Tinder as a co-founder, and the moments leading up to Bumble going public in 2021.
The film is directed by Rachel Lee Goldenberg (Unplanned, Minx, Valley Girl) and is written by Goldberg, Bill Parker, and Kim Caramele.
The movie also stars Jackson White, Myha’la, Ben Schnetzer, Pierson Fodé, Clea DuVall, Pedro Correa, Ian Colleti, Coral Peña, Dan Stevens, Larkin Woodward, Ana Yi Puig, Olivia Rose Keegan, Joley Fisher, and Gabe Kessler.
Swiped is set to premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival in the Gala Presentations section, and will have its world premiere on September 9th. Check out the trailer below:
