Watch the trailer for Aliens Abducted My Parents and Now I Feel Kinda Left Out

January 21, 2023 by Amie Cranswick

Coinciding with its world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival, a poster and trailer have been released for the comedy-drama Aliens Abducted My Parents and Now I Feel Kinda Left Out.

Directed by Jake Van Wagoner, the film stars Emma Tremblay as Itsy, a teenager and aspiring journalist who is miserable after her family moves to a small town in the middle of nowhere, until she sees her chance to get into a NYC journalism program when she meets her space obsessed neighbour (Jacob Buster) who believes his parents were abducted by aliens and decides to write an exposé on his story. Watch the trailer below…

 

Itsy Levan is devastated by her parents’ decision to leave the city and buy a fixer upper in the middle of nowhere. Her life seems over until she meets her space-obsessed neighbor Calvin Kipler. Calvin has spent most of his life awaiting the next arrival of Jesper’s Comet— partly because of his obsession with Astronomy, but mostly because the last time it came, ALIENS ABDUCTED HIS PARENTS! This year he is going to be ready for its return so he can finally get them back. Itsy sees this as a chance to help her get in to a NYC journalism program and decides to help him, however crazy his plan seems. They end up discovering much more than what is on the other end of the comet’s tail.

Aliens Abducted My Parents and Now I Feel Kinda Left Out stars Emma Tremblay, Jacob Buster, Kenneth Cummins, Will Forte, and Elizabeth Mitchell.
