This project, aimed at adult viewers, focuses on themes of Millennial angst and disillusionment, diverging from traditional children's narratives. While Edebiri's involvement suggests a creative spin on the beloved character, details about the plot remain scarce. The film's approach mirrors the successful adaptation of Barbie, though concerns linger regarding its overall recognition and appeal in the current landscape of adaptations.
