IFC Films' FREAK SHOW Opens 1/12 with Bette Midler, Laverne Cox and More!
Directed by: Trudie Styler, and starring: Bette Midler, Laverne Cox, Alex Lawther, Abigail Breslin & AnnaSophia Robb.
Billy Bloom (Alex Lawther, The Imitation Game) is one-of-a-kind: a fabulous, glitter-bedecked, gender-bending teenager whose razor-sharp wit is matched only his by his outrageous, anything-goes fashion sense. When his glamorous mother (Bette Midler) is forced to send him to live with his straight-laced father (Larry Pine), Billy finds himself a diva-out-of-water at his new ultra-conservative high school. Undaunted by the bullies who don't understand him, the fearless Billy sets out to make a big statement in his own inimitable way: challenging the school's reigning mean girl (Abigail Breslin) for the title of homecoming queen. This proudly offbeat comedy is an irresistible ode to OUTSIDERS and nonconformists of all stripes.
