Paramount+ has dropped the full trailer for Grease: Rise of the Pink Ladies, the anticipated coming-of-age musical series which serves as a prequel to 1978’s classic teen comedy. The series will be available for streaming on April 6.
The trailer introduces us to four teenage girls who are sick and tired of being outcasts. As a result of this, they decide to band together to form Rydell High’s coolest girl gang — The Pink Ladies. The video also gives us a preview of some of series’ big musical numbers.
Check out the Grease: Rise of the Pink Ladies trailer below:
“It takes place four years before the original Grease; in 1954 before rock ‘n’ roll ruled, before the T-Birds were the coolest in the school, four fed-up outcasts dare to have fun on their own terms, sparking a moral panic that will change Rydell High forever,” reads the synopsis.
Grease: Rise of the Pink Ladies is written and executive produced by Annabel Oakes (Atypical), who also serves as the showrunner and director. It stars Marisa Davila as Jane, Cheyenne Isabel Wells as Olivia, Ari Notartomaso as Cynthia, Tricia Fukuhara as Nancy, Shanel Bailey as Hazel, Madison Thompson as Susan, Johnathan Nieves as Richie, Jason Schmidt as Buddy, Maxwell Whittington-Cooper as Wally, and Jackie Hoffman as Asst. Principal McGee.
