- Official Trailer | Amazon Studios
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 neighbor 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 irresistible cast, led by Jillian Bell, 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.
Written and Directed by Paul Downs Colaizzo Starring Jillian Bell, Michaela Watkins, Utkarsh Ambudkar,
Lil Rel Howery and Micah Stock
