Kaitlyn Dever, Beanie Feldstein, and Director Olivia Wilde Talk About Their New Film <i>Booksmart</i>

On the eve of their high school graduation, best friends Amy (Kaitlyn Dever) and Molly (Beanie Feldstein) realize that in focusing so much on school, they forgot to be teenagers. The duo embarks on an adventure to make up for lost time. What’s the worse that can happen?

Written by Emily Halpern, Sarah Haskins, Susanna Fogel, and Katie Silberman, Booksmart is directed by Olivia Wilde. While this is her directorial debut for film, Wilde has gone behind the camera directing music videos like Red Hot Chili Peppers ‘Dark Necessities’ and Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros ‘No Love Like Yours.’ 

Unfortunately, due to the number of people in the Booksmart entourage, the red carpet premiere at SXSW 2019 was very chaotic and press had to limit the number of questions due to timing. 

Booksmart arrives In theaters May 24

Check out the Booksmart trailer here.

I provide testosterone to the site. You won’t be reading about how nice a actress looks in a dress or how much of a hunk Matt Bomer is in my reviews. I describe colors using words like brown, not taupe. My twitter name is @staffaroadtrip because I love road trips and have done two different 48-state road trips since 2008. My favorite show is White Collar.
