Stephanie Conway: Celebs Rumors

Dennis Harvey Film CriticSpare parts of high school comedies from “Peggy Sue Got Married” to “Mean Girls” and beyond have been torn asunder, then sewn back together to create “Senior Year.” In other words, this vehicle for producer-star Rebel Wilson isn’t organic even as a genre homage; its Frankensteinian assemblage always feels more imitative than inspired. Nonetheless, if Alex Hardcastle’s effortfully high-spirited Netflix feature isn’t exactly good, it’s still good enough to provide reasonable throwaway fun, thanks much less to the material than to a cast that elevates it when they can.Introduced as “just some average boring invisible girl who had no friends” in 1999, Australian émigré Stephanie Conway (Angourie Rice) determines on her 14th birthday to start doing better.

“Senior Year.”Full of 2000s nostalgia, the film stars 41-year-old Wilson as a high school cheerleader named Stephanie Conway who falls off a pyramid and into a 20-year-coma. She then wakes up as a 37-year-old woman, ready to return to high school, regain her status and claim the prom queen crown that eluded her.The Aussie actress said in a statement, “‘Senior Year’ is like the wildly funny love child of ‘Bring It On’ and ‘Never Been Kissed.’ It will literally bring ‘cheer’ into your homes! I can’t wait for everyone to see ‘Senior Year’ on Netflix this May 13.”Wilson shared the first-look image on her Instagram, writing in the caption, “Got my butterfly clips and glitter, and I’m ready to head back to 2002!” She’s also a producer on the project.In her post, she also shared a quick snippet of herself rocking a green and yellow cheerleading uniform.Alex Hardcastle is directing the feature, which also stars Alicia Silverstone, Justin Hartley, Angourie Rice, Sam Richardson, Zoë Chao, Mary Holland and Chris Parnell.Last August, the “Bridesmaids” star channeled Britney Spears when she rocked the pop star’s iconic look from her “(You Drive Me) Crazy” music video.
