SZA has already conquered music, with the singer releasing two of the most critically acclaimed albums of the past decade and racking up the accolades. Now she’s setting her sights on acting as she’s set to make her big screen debut alongside multi-threat Keke Palmer in the upcoming comedy One Of Them Days.
One Of Them Days stars SZA and Keke as best friends and roommates Alyssa and Dreux, respectively. The colorful duo has big dreams, but they have even bigger problems when Alyssa’s boyfriend (played by actor and social media star Joshua Neal) runs off with their rent money to fund his pipe dream. Now, with only 24 hours to secure the rent, the ladies must do whatever it takes to keep themselves from being put out on the street.
Since this is an R-rated buddy comment that happens to be produced by Issa Rae, you can rest assured that hijinks will ensue. The film’s trailer shows them getting into all kinds of trouble, including mishaps involving electricity, a horror scene at a blood bank and futile attempts at collecting a payday loan. Along the way, they also happen to meet a true cast of characters played by the likes of Lil Rel Howery, Vanessa Bell Calloway, Janelle James and Katt Williams.
SZA and Keke Palmer might be the comedy duo we didn’t know we needed, and One Of Them Days looks like it will be a laugh riot. Count us among the number who will be in theaters when the film drops on January 24th, 2025. Take a peek at the raucous trailer below.
