The trailer for Mayim Bialik’s new movie ‘As They Made Us’ has arrived
Published March 9, 2022
Mayim Bialik apparently can do it all.
She says she had never had any intention on directing a movie, but she’s doing it anyway
In 2015, after the death of her father, Bialik began writing as a therapeutic exercise. Now, those efforts are bared fruit, with her debut of “As They Made Us” (in theaters and on demand April 8). Described as a mordantly funny family drama starring Dianna Agron (“Shiva Baby”) and two-time Oscar winner Dustin Hoffman.
“I consider the whole thing this wonderful accident,” Bialik told USA Today. “There’s a very specific year of mourning that we do in traditional Judaism. After that year, I felt an urge that I’ve never felt before to start putting down in writing a lot of my experiences and memories of grief. And literally, I ended up with a screenplay. I’ve never written one before.”
