In addition, Elizabeth has also landed a lead role in the upcoming indie film Mack and Rita, alongside Diane Keaton.
According to Deadline, “Mackenzie Martin, played by Lail, is tired of doing all the things she has to do to keep up and get ahead in her 30’s. Since she was a little girl, raised by her Grammie Martin, her deepest wish has been to be just like her Grammie, comfortable in her own skin, great at saying ‘no’ and largely unburdened by what other people think of her. Not to mention Mack has always loved a good chunky sweater and being in bed by 8 pm. While at her best friend’s bachelorette in Palm Springs, Mack stumbles into a sound bath regression pod and comes out as a 70-year-old woman, who she names her Aunt Rita. But Mack’s transformation really has nothing to do with her exterior body and Mack she learns that the reality of old age isn’t quite what she imagined. It turns out that being comfortable in your own skin isn’t a given at 70, or any age, really, because self acceptance comes from within and only through actually living.”

Elizabeth Lail, Zelda Williams and Amber Coney step out in style for the Dead of Summer screening event held at Hollywood Forever Cemetery on Wednesday night (June 15) in Hollywood.
“Alberto [Frezza], who plays Garrett, is constantly trying to scare me,” Elizabeth shared with Variety. “He was hiding behind these hanging mannequins on a rack and I had passed by them so many times in the dark but I hadn’t seen them, and he flashed a light on them and I had a death scream! It was so scary.”
She added, “Even the people who play, I’m going to call them ‘the hauntees,’ their makeup is so scary I don’t even want to talk to them on set.”
