Issa Rae, Regina Hall & Marsai Martain Shine In Trailer For ‘Little’

This April, fans of Issa Rae of HBO’s Insecure fame will be hitting the big screen in the upcoming film Little co-starring Regina Hall and Marsai Martin. The film looks like it will pack a big lesson in there about treating others with decency along with sure-fire laughs from the trio.

Little follows Hall, who plays a mean-spirited and micromanaging CEO of a tech company with Rae standing in as her assistant. The trailer features a young child transforming Hall into a teen version of herself played by Martin (of Black-ish fame) with Rae trying to help the little version of her boss navigate her life despite her terrible attitude. Rae’s character runs the company in her Hall’s place while Hall’s character returns to public school with all the attitude intact.

If this sounds like a Black version of Tom Hanks’ Big, then you guessed right.

The film is directed by Tina Gordon and produced by Will Packer Productions. Along with Gordon, Girls Trip co-writer Tracy Oliver co-wrote the script for Little.

The film hits theaters on April 12. Check out the trailer below.

Marvel Takes It Back To The ’90’s, Unveils Trailer For ‘Captain Marvel’

Marvel Studios Fan Event

This will be a big spoiler for anyone who has yet to see Avengers: Infinity War (but really, what are you waiting for?), you’ve been warned. During the end credits of the aforementioned film, Avengers boss Nick Fury sends out a distress signal to a mysterious figure savvy fans realized was the all-powerful Captain Marvel, and now a trailer for the film has been unleashed to the masses.

Starring Brie Larson in the starring role, Captain Marvel introduces Carol Danvers to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. In the clip, viewers are transported back to the 1990s as we see a relic of times past in Blockbuster Video as Danvers crashes into the store’s roof from the skies. A familiar voice in Samuel L. Jackson is heard, who encounters the mysterious Danvers, clearly a time before whatever incident took the S.H.I.E.L.D. chief’s eye and when he still had hair.

Larson’s character, who is half-Kree, the alien species which are known for their military nature, exhibits some of the strongest powers among the characters of the MCU and is shown fighting in the cosmos alongside the Kree Space Fleet, no, not President Donald Trump’s weird outfit, but a group led by Jude Law playing who some could assume must be the Kree warrior leader of the space force known as Mar-Vell.

Also starring in the trailer is a younger version of Clark Gregg’s Agent Coulson, and Larson showing off Captain Marvel’s tremendous abilities. As the MCU’s first feature film with a woman in the lead role, the anticipation for the blockbuster will be high as expected.

Captain Marvel hits theaters on March 8.
