Kaitlyn Dever and Beanie Feldstein pose together for a few pics while arriving at the premiere of their new film, Booksmart, on Tuesday night (May 7) at Picturehouse Central in London, England.
The two stars of the movie were joined by Olivia Wilde, who directed the film.
If you don’t know, Booksmart centers on academic overachievers Amy and Molly, who thought keeping their noses to the grindstone gave them a leg up on their high school peers. But on the eve of graduation, the best friends suddenly realize that they may have missed out on the special moments of their teenage years.
Determined to make up for lost time, the girls decide to cram four years of not-to-be missed fun into one night — a chaotic adventure that no amount of book smarts could prepare them for.
Booksmart hits theaters on May 24th – watch the trailer here!
FYI: Olivia is wearing a Giambattista Valli dress to the premiere.

The Men, Women & Children star and the Lady Bird actress will both appear in the film Booksmart, directed by Olivia Wilde, who will be making her directorial debut.
The story focuses on Kaitlyn and Beanie’s characters, “who, on the eve of their high school graduation, two academic superstars and best friends suddenly realize that they should have worked less and played more. Determined never to fall short of their peers, the girls set out on a mission to cram four years of fun into one night,” according to Variety.
“Sitting across from @kaitlyndever at breakfast freaking out!!!!” Beanie shared on Instagram. “So excited to work with these brilliant women!!! 📚📚📚 #booksmartmovie #femalefilmmakerfriday.”
The script was also penned by a group of women, and the film is being produced by Annapurna Pictures and Gloria Sanchez, the female-focused production banner wing of Gary Sanchez Productions.
The 24-year-old Lady Bird actress revealed she was actually wearing her prom dress while on the red carpet at the 2018 Screen Actors Guild Awards!
“I put it on and it fit, surprisingly maybe better than it did in high school! I looked at myself and I was like, WHAT!? and my mom and her best friend were just laughing so hard, like, ‘You have to wear it! There’s just no other dress that would be better,’” she told The Cut.
Beanie added, “It’s just a gorgeous dress, and I love how my character’s story ends at the prom, so like, for the first time I’m going to an awards show as a nominee with the cast, it’s like, ‘You gotta wear your prom dress, girl, and honor Julie.’”
