In a strip club, expectations are set. Women are objectified for men's pleasure, and money made is filtered through the club owners until there's little left for the workers themselves. Not to mention that the women who do this work are reduced to Eurocentric, Hollywood beauty standards that demand all looks and expect no intelligence. But in Hustlers, Ramona (Jennifer Lopez) has had enough. She brings together a team of badass women, including Destiny (Constance Wu), Mercedes (Keke Palmer), Elizabeth (Julia Stiles), Annabelle (Lili Reinhart), Liz (Lizzo), and Diamond (Cardi B).
Ramona leads her new squad of modern-day Robin Hoods to con the wealthy Wall Street big shots who visit their club. Drawing on a true story written by Jessica Pressler for New York Magazine in an article titled "The Hustlers at Scores," director and screenwriter Lorene Scafaria takes the story to a new level with an epic cast and the promise of adventure.
Watch the trailer below, and check out Hustlers in theaters September 13.
