The cast of Zola stepped out in full force for the LA screening of the highly anticipated film on Tuesday. Director Janicza Bravo, Riley Keough, Colman Domingo, Dave Franco, and Nelcie Souffrant all hit the red carpet together, and they were even joined by the real-life Zola herself, A'Ziah King. Also in attendance were Jodie Turner-Smith, Isis King, Arlo Parks, and several other stars.
Noticeably absent, though, was Taylour Paige, as she's currently in Bulgaria. However, she did take a moment to celebrate the film's release on Twitter. "I love you everyone! 11:37Am in Bulgaria with happy tender tears that our movie Zola is officially live!!!" she tweeted. "Whoever is to receive it, enjoy it, absorb it, love it might it find you. So appreciative of it all. Life is crazy."

A24 has released the official trailer for “Zola,” which will release theatrically on June 30.
Based on the infamous Twitter thread posted by A’Ziah Wells King, the film follows a Detroit waitress named Zola (Taylour Paige) who strikes up a new friendship with a customer, Stefani (Riley Keough), who convinces her to join a weekend of dancing and partying in Florida. What at first seems like a glamorous trip full of “hoeism” rapidly transforms into a 48-hour journey involving a nameless pimp, an idiot boyfriend, some Tampa gangsters and other unexpected adventures.
“Zola” made its worldwide premiere at the Sundance Film Festival in January 2020. Described as “an irreverent, sensibility-offending trip for audiences” by Variety’s Peter Debruge, the film premiered to laughter and applause at the festival. At the premiere, director Janicza Bravo said she became “immediately obsessed” with the Twitter thread that was sent in a group text chain...
