‘My Old Ass’ Trailer: Maisy Stella Takes Shrooms And Meets Older Self Aubrey Plaza In Amazon MGM’s Sundance Crowd-Pleaser

Amazon MGM Studios on Thursday morning debuted the first trailer for My Old Ass, its Sundance crowd-pleaser starring Maisy Stella (Nashville) and Aubrey Plaza (The White Lotus), which is slated for an exclusive release in theaters on September 13.

Written and directed by Megan Park, the veteran actress behind 2021’s Max high school drama The Fallout, the coming-of-age film watches as free-spirited teenager Elliott (Stella) encounters her wisecracking 39-year-old future self (Aubrey Plaza) — and can’t escape her influence.

On the cusp of leaving home for college, Elliott is determined to have one last summer packed with good times and girl-crushes. To celebrate her 18th birthday, she boats off to a remote island with her best friends to trip on mushrooms. But just when Elliott thinks she’s not feeling a thing, she suddenly finds herself chatting with a woman who claims to be her literal “old ass” (Aubrey Plaza) — the person she is apparently destined to become in two decades. Prodded for advice, Elliott’s future self gives her one major warning: avoid anyone named Chad, which sounds easy enough. But when Elliott meets the very Chad (Percy Hynes White) she was supposed to dodge, things get complicated. Elliott starts to open herself to what her future self might have to show her…and vice versa.
