Written and directed by James L. Brooks (Broadcast News; As Good as It Gets), Ella McCay stars Emma Mackey in the title role of a young politician preparing to become state governor while dealing with chaotic family issues.
The film also stars Jamie Lee Curtis, Jack Lowden, Kumail Nanjiani, Ayo Edebiri, Rebecca Hall, Albert Brooks and Woody Harrelson.
"My goal for this movie was to pay tribute, as best I could, to the golden age of movie comedy, with the same zany spirit of that era," says Brooks. "I was lucky enough to have a dream cast who delivered this story about Ella and her family with an energy and spirit way past what I'd imagined."
Ella McCay is in UK/ROI cinemas from December 12th.
Check out the new trailer and poster below.
The official synopsis reads:
An idealistic young woman juggles her family and work life in a comedy about the people you love and how to survive them.
