‘Dear Zoe’ Trailer: Sadie Sink Stars In Heart-Wrenching Indie Drama | Watch Trailer
Big things are in store for Sadie Sink. The up-and-coming young actress, best known for playing Max Mayfield on Netflix’s Stranger Things, continues to gain prominence on screens both big and small, particularly with her performances in the Fear Street trilogy, as well as her starring role in Taylor Swift’s All Too Well short film from last year.
She’s already garnering some Oscar talk for her emotional turn in Darren Aronofsky’s The Whale, and that’s only the beginning for the bright talent.
Along with these titles, Sink is also slated to star in Dear Zoe, an upcoming indie family drama based on Philip Beard’s 2005 novel of the same name.
Now, we’ve got our first look at the actress’ latest starring role, courtesy of the film’s official trailer, which debuted earlier today.
Also starring Vivien Lyra Blair, Theo Rossi, Kweku Collins, Jessica Capshaw, and Justin Bartha, Dear Zoe follows Tess (Sink), a teenage girl who fractures from her family following a devastating loss. In an effort to find emotional support, this teen reconnects with her biological father (Rossi), a slacker who ultimately wants to do right by his daughter, while also kindling a blooming young romance with a charming juvenile delinquent (Collins) who lives next door.
Through the grounded performances on display, it’s easy to see how this quaint independent drama demonstrates Sink’s gentle and lived-in ability to play young women who seek to find their strength and their own sense of self, even in a few heart-wrenching circumstances.
The actress has an exceptional future ahead of her. Dear Zoe will be released in select theaters and on VOD starting November 4th. In the meantime, check out the first trailer below.
