Trailer Debuts for Drag, Dark Comedy Thriller Starring Lizzy Caplan and Lucy DeVito

The festival-tested film moves toward a distributor-backed January theatrical release that spotlights a DeVito family producing team and two first-time feature directors.

Overview

  • Briarcliff Entertainment released the first trailer and poster on Nov. 5–6, 2026, and confirmed a wide theatrical release date of January 29, 2027.
  • Drag follows two estranged sisters whose planned burglary turns into a survival nightmare when one throws out her back and becomes immobilized.
  • Lizzy Caplan and Lucy DeVito lead a cast that also includes John Stamos and Christine Ko, with Danny DeVito, Lucy DeVito, and Jake DeVito serving as producers.
  • The film was written and co-directed by Raviv Ullman and Greg Yagolnitzer, marking both filmmakers’ feature directorial debuts after a festival run that included SXSW, Overlook, FilmQuest, Sitges, and Splat!FilmFest.
  • Early coverage frames Drag as an offbeat blend of physical comedy and thriller beats and positions it as a commercial test of festival buzz and the DeVito producers’ dark-comedy pedigree.
