The first Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret trailer has been released for Lionsgate’s forthcoming movie adaptation of Judy Blume’s classic book. The trailer gives us a look at the coming-of-age movie and its cast.
“In Lionsgate’s big-screen adaptation, 11-year-old Margaret is uprooted from her life in New York City for the suburbs of New Jersey, going through the messy and tumultuous throes of puberty with new friends in a new school,” reads the synopsis. “She relies on her mother, Barbara, who is also struggling to adjust to life outside the big city, and her adoring grandmother, Sylvia, who isn’t happy they moved away and likes to remind them every chance she gets.”
The movie adaptation of Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret is written and directed by The Edge of Seventeen‘s Kelly Fremon Craig, who is re-teaming with legendary Academy Award-winning producer James L. Brooks and his Gracie Films banner. Julie Ansell, Richard Sakai, Amy Brooks, Fremon Craig, and Blume will join Brooks as producers.
