## Summary

A24 has released the trailer for "Misty Green," a drama written and directed by Chris Rock, marking his third feature behind the camera and his first directing effort in over a decade. The film stars Rosalind Eleazar in the lead role opposite Rock, Adam Driver, Daniel Kaluuya, Anna Kendrick and Topher Grace, telling the story of an actress fighting to revive a stalled career.

The trailer's logline describes Eleazar's character, Misty, as "a talented actress whose career has stalled" fighting for "her second act," and features sharp exchanges with her agent (Grace), a filmmaker played by Rock, and a candid conversation with a friend played by Kendrick. Rock previously directed "Head of State" (2003), "I Think I Love My Wife" (2007) and "Top Five" (2014), and produced "Misty Green" alongside David Worthen Brooks and Peter Rice, with Miles Alva, Nelson George, Shaum S. Sengupta and Max Henke as executive producers.
