The "Bottoms" trailer opens with an announcement being made over the high school's speaker system: "Could the ugly, untalented gays please report to the principal's office?" Brittany (Kaia Gerber), looking at PJ (Rachel Sennott) and Josie (Ayo Edebiri), then sweetly says, "Guess that's you guys."
It's then revealed that PJ has a crush on Brittany, while Josie has a crush on Brittany's fellow cheerleader Isabel (Havana Rose Liu). This eventually leads them to the idea of starting a self-defense club — or "fight club" — for girls with the hope that the cheerleaders will be so grateful that they'll want to date PJ and Josie. As PJ explains, "They are grateful to us, adrenaline is flowing. Next thing you know, Isabel and Brittany are kissing us on the mouths!"
What follows is a series of clips of the girls fighting each other, with punches being thrown and blood flowing. The girls in the club express how excited they are to be able to fight for themselves, with one announcing that she plans to reverse-stalk her own stalker. However, their club only provokes the football jocks, seemingly leading to a bit of a rivalry between the two groups. Toward the end of the trailer, Isabel declares, "Let's go f*** up some football players."
"Bottoms" will be released in theaters on August 25, 2023.
