The new prequel series to the iconic film Grease is almost here! The streaming service Paramount+ just released a teaser trailer for Grease: Rise of the Pink Ladies, set to premiere on April 6th. The film is set in 1954, four years before the events in Grease.
Four teenagers Jane (Marisa Davila), Nancy (Tricia Fukuhara), Olivia (Cheyenne Wells), and Cynthia (Ari Notartomaso) form the Pink Ladies at Rydell High. Of course, the assistant principal is not happy about the new girl gang and says in the trailer, “Ladies, you must be careful with whom you associate. A girl’s reputation is all that she has.”
