April 12, 2024 by Amie Cranswick

Utopia has released a poster and trailer for I Used to Be Funny, the upcoming comedy drama from writer-director Ally Pankiw.

Rachel Sennott (Shiva Baby) stars as Sam, an aspiring stand-up comedian suffering with PTSD who is struggling with the decision of whether or not to help with the search for a teenage girl she used to nanny who has recently went missing. Watch the trailer below…

I Used To Be Funny is a dark dramedy that follows Sam Cowell (Rachel Sennott), an aspiring stand-up comedian and au pair struggling with PTSD, as she decides whether or not to join the search for Brooke (Olga Petsa), a missing teenage girl she used to nanny. The story exists between the present, where Sam tries to recover from her trauma and get back on stage, and the past, where memories of Brooke make it harder and harder to ignore the troubled teen’s sudden disappearance.

Joining Rachel Sennott in the cast are Olga Pesta, Jason Jones, Sabrina Jalees, Caleb Hearon, and Ennis Esmer.
