The feature directorial debut of Josh Margolin, THELMA is a poignant action-comedy that gives veteran Oscar® nominee June Squibb (NEBRASKA) her first leading role and features the final performance of trailblazing actor Richard Roundtree (SHAFT). Squibb, who did most of her own stunts in the film, plays Thelma Post, a feisty 93-year-old grandmother who gets conned by a phone scammer pretending to be her grandson (The White Lotus’ Fred Hechinger) and sets out on a treacherous quest across Los Angeles, accompanied by an aging friend (Roundtree) and his motorized scooter, to reclaim what was taken from her. Parker Posey, Clark Gregg, Nicole Byer, and Malcolm McDowell also star.
Inspired by a real-life experience of Margolin’s own grandmother, THELMA puts a clever spin on movies like MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE, shining the spotlight on an elderly grandmother as an unlikely action hero. With infectious humor, Margolin employs the familiar tropes of the action genre in hilarious, age-appropriate ways to tackle aging with agency. In the first leading film role of her 70-year career, Squibb portrays the strong-willed Thelma with grit and determination, demonstrating that she is more than capable of taking care of business - despite what her daughter Gail (Posey), son-in-law Alan (Gregg), or grandson Danny might believe.
Starring June Squibb, Fred Hechinger, Richard Roundtree, Parker Posey, Clark Gregg, Nicole Byer, Malcolm McDowell

She is 94 and playing the lead in a film, amazing!
I just wish old actors could get roles that weren't always about "being old". Yes, June Squibb is 94, but why does her character and storyline and everything have to be about "old age", when there is so much potential to do something unique. Whenever you see a great actor getting a role in their 70-90s, it is ALWAYS about breaking out of the retirement home or its about moving on after the spouse is gone, etc...
@@laurencewhite4809 Old actors DO get roles that aren't all about being old. Anthony Hopkins played Thor's father at the age of 74 and Patrick Stewart played the lead in the X men franchise well into his 70s. Morgan Freeman's acting career has been very busy after he turned 70 and few of the roles he played were about being old. Al Pacino, Michael Caine, Helen Mirren - all had roles in their 70s that weren't stereotypical old person characters,
@@laurencewhite4809 Yes, I see what you mean. When it is a film set in "the real world," that is usually the sort of thing people her age are dealing with. It would be interesting to see her as a politician, or if it were a fantasy story she could play a sage or something.
@@laurencewhite4809 that's true, actually but it's still a good film.
We need more golden girls-esque movies & television
Richard Roundtrees last film, glad he got to go out having what appears to have been a fun picture.
I said the same thing as I was watching it 😢
When you get Shaft to help you get justice, you know it's serious.
Shaft (shaft!) He's a bad motherf . . .
@@warrenleezy shut yo mouth!
😂😂😂
I was only talking about John Shaft@@pchan0368
Even at the end, Richard Roundtree looked good. RIP
Sheldon Cooper’s Meemaw, Shaft, and S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent Phil Coulson? I’m IN !
Rest In Peace to the late, great Richard Roundtree!
This actually looks awesome. Thank you for casting senior main characters and writing exciting scripts for them.
I know right. This is the best trailer I have seen thus far.
I work in a Senior community and can't wait to put this on in our little movie theater! They will love it :)
this movie looks funny!! My Granny , “my great grandmother” lived to be 95 & passed in 2012 when I was 22! She was my best friend and her name was Thelma. Love you granny! 💝
I saw this through virtual Sundance Film Festival this year, and it was pretty much my favorite film of the festival. This film is hilarious on SO many levels, hope it does well!
We were lucky enough to see this film at a special screening in Prescott AZ last night. It is AMAZING! When it comes to your local independent cinema or Cineplex, RUN DON'T WALK TO SEE THIS!
“My mother is at large” that’s hilarious 😂
RIP The Legend Shaft Richard Roundtree
This made me cry missing my grandma. She was so funny and beautiful and she would totally have been up for Themla's shenanigans. What a role for June Squibb.
R.I.P uncle Richard Roundtree 🙏🏾
I remembered my late dad had this pulled on him. Only problem was my nephew was 6 months old. Dad went along with it including this phrase i cant believe you are only 6 months old and already talk and going to jail. Never heard back from them again.
Similar. Got a call telling it was the police and my daughter was in a car accident in another state. I don’t have kids. It through them enough that the supposed cop said are you sure🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Posey-heads are so back
June Squibb is a ✨delight✨ and this looks hysterical. Can't wait!
This looks like a lot of fun, June Squibb is great in everything.
This looks great! I'd love to see Richard Roundtree get a posthumous Academy Award. It would be well deserved.
I am going to see this DAY 1. This looks funny, heartwarming and so refreshing.
This looks great! Would love to see this one!
Someone steals her money and John Shaft helps her get it back. I’d watch it.
SOMEONE CONTACT KITBOGA!! we need a viewing party!!!!
O M G IMAGINE HIS CAMEO IN THIS
RIP Richard Roundtree.
🤣 Love the cast. Let's hope Statham shows up to help out at the end
You don’t understand how epic that would be though lol actually I guess you do lol 😂
This looks so wholesome
I just saw this movie at the Seattle International Film Festival. It was so hilarious and sweet. While it touches on aging, it doesn't get depressing and shows just how much a 90-something is capable of! I also had the pleasure of meeting June Squibb and she is an absolute treasure. I highly recommend seeing this film, it's so worth it!
this is why I don't mess with seniors! they don't play games!
It's Meemaw!
Im stopping this trailer half-way through, because this just landed on my "must watch" list. 😮😊
It looks so good you guys!
I caught this at the Alexander Valley Film Festival aka AVFilm and had an absolute BLAST! It's a very sweet, funny comedy about a 90 year old grandmother going on an action adventure thrill ride in the most realistic way possible. It's a delight and can't recommend it enough.
Wow! First Ellen Burstyn in “Mother, Couch”, and now June Squibb in “Thelma”! We are doubly blessed this year!!!❤❤❤
I feel like I’ve seen her in so many movies. In so happy she is finally a lead!
When a film has wonderful actors, Fantastic writing and is Fun! Definitely going to see this!
She's so adorable, I love her already.
This looks amazing!
Lol. This looks great. You got Phil Coulson teaming up with Shaft and a Mrs. Smith.
This made me smile.

I do not remember the last time I was this excited to see a film. Boy, what a fantastic trailer!!!

This looks like the kind of movie I've missed a lot. ❤
If you like this I recommend Blow the Man Down. It also had June Squibb.
That's actually on one of my lists, can't remember which streaming service, though....
It's on Prime and worth a watch. She was so hilarious in Nebraska. A movie with Bruce Dern, Will Forte, and Bob Odenkirk but Squibb gets the biggest laughs. Love it
Richard Roundtree 🙏🏽❤️.
I'm looking forward to the movie. She reminds me a lot of my grandmother who passed away.
I can’t wait to see this! It looks awesome.
