Alia Shawkat Joins Kristen Stewart in Neon’s ‘The Wrong Girls’

Alia Shawkat is joining Kristen Stewart in a lead role for The Wrong Girls, Dylan Meyer’s directorial debut for Neon now shooting in Los Angeles in the wake of the recent wildfires.
Written and directed by Meyer, the film follows Frankie (Stewart) and Molly (Shawkat) as best friends living paycheck to paycheck, only to see a case of mistaken identity throw their lives into chaos. The Wrong Girls also has supporting roles played by Seth Rogen, Kumail Nanjiani, Lakeith Stanfield, Zack Fox and Tony Hale.
Neon plans to release the film theatrically in the U.S. and shop the international rights. In 2019, Meyer wrote, directed and co-produced her own short film Rock Bottom.
The film’s 29-day production schedule is expected to employ around 100 people per day, 95 percent of which will be local Los Angeles residents, including cinematographer Todd Banhazl, singer-songwriter and composer Ty Segall and costumer Heidi Bivens.
