Lupita Nyong’o is set to star in a soon-to-be released comedy horror film titled “Little Monsters”. It is a light-hearted zombie apocalypse film and romantic comedy which also stars Alexander England and Josh Gad.
Following its premiere at Sundance Film Festival in January, the official trailer for the movie has been released.
“Little Monsters” – sees Lupita play a teacher forced to protect her kindergarten students from a zombie attack that occurs while they’re on a field trip, while also being caught in a love triangle.
“The film follows Dave (Alexander England), who crashes at his sister’s place following a rough breakup and takes the opportunity to chaperone his nephew’s class on a field trip in an attempt to impress his teacher, Miss Caroline (Lupita Nyong’o). While on the trip, the class finds themselves in the middle of a zombie invasion, the product of an experiment gone wrong at a nearby military base. It is then up to Dave, Caroline and children’s television personality Teddy McGiggle (Josh Gad) to keep the kids safe,” The Hollywood Reporter summarises.
Nyong’o recently narrated the BBC wildlife series “Serengeti”, and is slated for a number of film projects in the coming months, including the upcoming film adaptation of Trevor Noah’s best-selling autobiography, “Born a Crime”.
“Little Monsters” has been acquired by Hulu for distribution and will hit theaters in the UK and Ireland on November 15, though its US release date has not yet been announced.
