Trailer & Poster To ‘Alice’ Starring KeKe Palmer
Vertical Entertainment and Roadside Attractions have released the trailer and poster to the dramatic thriller Alice, which premiered last month at the 2022 Sundance Film Festival. Written and directed by Krystin Ver Linden, the film will released theatrically on Mar. 18, 2022.
The film stars Keke Palmer as Alice, an enslaved person yearning for freedom on a rural Georgia plantation under its brutal and disturbed owner Paul (Jonny Lee Miller). After a violent clash with Paul, she flees through the neighboring woods and stumbles onto the unfamiliar sight of a highway, soon discovering the year is actually 1973. Rescued on the roadside by a disillusioned political activist named Frank (Common), Alice quickly comprehends the lies that have kept her in bondage and the promise of Black liberation. Inspired by true accounts, Alice is a modern empowerment fable tracing Alice’s journey through the post-Civil Rights Era American South.
The film also stars Gaius Charles, Alicia Witt, Craig Stark and Shiquita James. The music was produced and songs curated by Common, Karrien Riggins, and Patrick Warren. Alice was financed and produced by Peter Lawson through his Steel Springs Pictures banner. Palmer and Common will executive produce alongside Jose Agustin Valdes and Vickie de Varona Hsieh.
