Taylour Paige Has a Story to Tell in 'Zola,' Based on the Viral Twitter Thread - Watch the Teaser!

A teaser trailer has been released for the upcoming A24 movie Zola, starring Taylour Paige in the title role.

In the clip, we see Taylour and co-star Riley Keough putting on their makeup in a mirror.

“You wanna hear a story about how me and this bitch here fell out?” Zola asks in voiceover. “It’s kinda long, but it’s full of suspense.”

The movie is an adaptation of the viral Twitter thread written by Aziah “Zola” Wells, a stripper who went on a road trip with a sex worker named Jessica. The film was directed by Janicza Bravo and she co-wrote the screenplay with acclaimed playwright Jeremy O. Harris.

Zola had its world premiere at the 2020 Sundance Film Festival and a theatrical release date has yet to be announced. We’re definitely looking forward to seeing this movie though!

Earlier in quarantine, Taylour was spotted out and about with her boyfriend Jesse Williams.
