The Brittany Runs a Marathon trailer landed in our mailbox today. Described as hilarious, outgoing and always up for a good time, New Yorker Brittany Forgler is everybody’s best friend ― except maybe her own. At 27, her hard-partying ways, chronic underemployment and toxic relationships are catching up with her, but when she stops by a new doctor’s office to try to score some Adderall, she gets slapped with a prescription she never wanted: Get healthy. Too broke for a gym and too proud to ask for help, Brit is at a loss, until her seemingly together neighbour Catherine pushes her to lace up her Converse sneakers and run one sweaty block. The next day, she runs two. And soon, after finishing her first mile, she sets an almost unthinkable goal: running in the New York City Marathon.
Award-winning playwright Paul Downs Colaizzo makes his directorial debut with Brittany Runs a Marathon, an uproarious, irreverent and surprisingly emotional comedy inspired by real events. The cast, led by Jillian Bell (22 Jump Street), lends heart and soul to this inspirational story of a party girl who finally finds real friends — and dignity — by taking control of her future, one city block at a time. Co- starring Michaela Watkins (“Trophy Wife”), Tony Award nominee Micah Stock (“Bonding”), Utkarsh Ambudkar (Pitch Perfect), Alice Lee (“Take Two,”) and Lil Rel Howery (Get Out).
The Brittany Runs a Marathon trailer looks funny and inspiring and for those of you familiar with the former name for a Snickers chocolate bar will be interested in rumours of a British version titled, Gemma Collins eats a marathon….and then another….and another…..and another…..and another….and another’
The film is produced by Tobey Maguire (Spiderman).
So here’s the Brittany Runs a Marathon trailer…….
