Two stoner best friends.

One experimental drug.

And suddenly… they can read each other's minds. And their cats'.

Welcome to The Wrong Girls — the most unhinged movie pitch of 2026.


🌿 The setup is gloriously stupid

Kristen Stewart and Alia Shawkat play Frankie and Molly.

Director Dylan Meyer describes them perfectly:

"Codependent boneheads who have spent the last 10 years blissfully in a fog of weed smoke, co-signing each other's bad choices and screening adulthood's increasingly insistent calls."

We've all met them.

Some of us are them.


🧠 Then the plot goes feral

The girls swallow a mystery drug.

They unlock telepathy.

A case of mistaken identity drops them into the crosshairs of people who want that drug back. Badly.

Meyer's promised ingredient list reads like a fever dream:

  • 🦑 Giant squids
  • 🔫 Danish hitmen
  • 🐈 Talking cats
  • ✨ Supernatural abilities
  • 💔 "Pure memoir" emotional stakes

Yes. Memoir.


💍 The behind-the-scenes love story

Here's the part that makes it sweeter.

Meyer and Stewart have been together 7 years.

They got married in April 2025.

Stewart co-wrote the script.

Meyer calls the film "a love letter to wayward chaotic women and the essential platonic partnerships that prop them up."

It was born from her real friendship with producing partner Maggie McLean — "the babe I couldn't do anything without."

A chaotic-girl manifesto, written by women who lived it.


🎬 And the cast is ridiculous

Stewart and Shawkat lead it. But look who's along for the ride:

  • 🎭 Seth Rogen
  • 👑 Geena Davis
  • 🔥 LaKeith Stanfield
  • 😂 Kumail Nanjiani
  • 🎤 Zack Fox
  • 🎩 Tony Hale

This isn't a cast. It's a chaos summoning circle.


🚀 Why this feels different

Stoner comedies have always been a boys' club.

Cheech and Chong. Harold and Kumar. Pineapple Express.

Meyer is flipping the genre — same weed haze, same absurd plot mechanics, but the heart is two women who refuse to grow up together.

Stewart teased it best back in 2023: "It's a stoner girl comedy, and it's really stupid. I think you'll like it."
