Prime Video has released the first trailer for its upcoming comedy Space Cadet. Emma Roberts stars in the film as Rex, a Florida party girl who wants to be an astronaut. This movie has been sitting around for a couple of years, but the studio finally decided to release it.
In the film, Tiffany “Rex” Simpson has always dreamed of going to space, but life isn’t going quite as planned. Determined to turn things around, she aims high and with the embellishing touch of her supportive best friend Nadine (Poppy Liu), her ‘doctored’ application lands her in NASA’s ultra-competitive astronaut training program.
“In over her head, Rex relies on her quick wits, moxie, and determination to get to the top of her class. NASA program directors Pam (Gabrielle Union) and Logan (Tom Hopper) certainly take notice, but can this Florida girl get through training and into the cosmos before she blows her cover?”
The movie was written and directed by Liz W. Garcia (Purple Hearts, The Sinner), and its said that this is a comedy “about the power of being yourself, following your dreams, and shooting for the stars.”
The movie looks like a very overly silly comedy that I’m sure some people will enjoy.
The movie also stars Colombian pop star Sebastián Yatra, David Foley (The Kids in the Hall), Desi Lydic (Awkward), Kuhoo Verma (Plan B), Yasha Jackson (The Flight Attendant), Troy Iwata (WeCrashed, Dash & Lily), Andrew Call (Z: The Beginning of Everything), and Josephine Huang.
The move will be released on July 4th.
