Overview
- The biographical drama is now available on Hulu in the U.S. and on Disney+ in the U.K. following its Toronto International Film Festival premiere.
- Lily James, who also produced, says she took the role to explore how women are silenced and to spotlight harassment and power dynamics in tech.
- Goldenberg says Wolfe Herd could not participate due to NDAs, so the team relied on court filings, press interviews and archived social media, with some gaps dramatized.
- Reviews are divided, with outlets like IndieWire, Newsday and RogerEbert.com criticizing a superficial treatment while frequently praising James’ lead turn.
- The film dramatizes Wolfe Herd’s early role at Tinder, her 2014 harassment lawsuit and the creation of Bumble, and it includes an “inspired by actual events” disclaimer.
