WHAT’S IT ABOUT?

April (Rae) is the long-suffering assistant to her nightmarish boss Jordan Sanders (Hall) who makes her life a living hell. One day, however, Jordan wakes up to find that she has turned back into her 13-year-old self (Martin) just as she is about to give a do-or-die presentation, and desperately needs April’s help to manage her predicament. Together, both women – one of them being trapped in an awkward tween body – learn to respect one another, and relish in a second chance to properly grow up…

IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?

Marsai Martin – the young star of hit TV comedy Black-ish – becomes the youngest person to ever be assigned an executive producer’s credit, on this Big-inspired film that Martin herself came up with the story for.
