The Big Picture Amazon have been cooking up a heartfelt treat with the upcoming film Sitting in Bars With Cake, a story of friendship, heartache, and perseverance starring Yara Shahidi and Odessa A'Zion. Adapted from the novel of the same name by Audrey Shulman and based upon true events, director Trish Sie promises there is much more to this comedy than meets the eye.
Shahidi stars as Jane, a down on her luck baker in search of a boost in confidence. This is where best friend Corinne steps in to lend a helping hand, as she encourages Jane to commit to a full year of "cakebarring" - baking cakes to bring to bars, as a means of meeting new people and building her self-esteem.
This bait and switch in the film's tone is part of what drew Sie to the project, as she told Entertainment Weekly "when I first read the script, I thought I was reading one movie, and then about 20 pages in, I realized it's so much more than that." She explained "I really liked that rug being pulled out from under me.
Who is Behind Sitting in Bars with Cake? Joining Shahidi and A'zion in the cast are Bette Midler, Ron Livingston, Martha Kelly, Maia Mitchell, Adina Porter, Navid Negahban, Aaron Dominguez, Charlie Morgan Patton, and Rish Shah. Shulman adapted the story for the screen, with Susan Cartsonis, Brent Emery, and Suzanne Farwell serving as the film's producers for Resonate Entertainment. Nick Moceri and Shahidi serve as executive producers alongside Teri Simpson.
Sitting in Bars with Cake is available to stream exclusively on Prime Video from September 8. Watch the trailer below:
