Rose Byrne, ASAP Rocky Star

Rose Byrne can’t catch a break in the official trailer for A24‘s If I Had Legs I’d Kick You. Her character, Linda, is dealing with a house flood that made her roof cave in, a therapist played by Conan O’Brien who could stand to be better at his job, and being courted by A$AP Rocky’s motel superintendent, who watches weird things on the internet.

“I’m supposed to know how to fix this,” Linda says in the clip. “I’m supposed to know how to fix her.” In theaters this October, If I Had Legs I’d Kick You was written and directed by Mary Bronstein. According to a synopsis of the film, it follows Linda as she “attempts to navigate her child’s mysterious illness, her absent husband, a missing person, and an increasingly hostile relationship with her therapist.”

Danielle Macdonald, Lark White, Ivy Wolk, Daniel Zolghadri, and Delaney Quinn also appear. The film marks Bronstein’s second directorial feature, following the 2008 comedy Yeast co-starring Greta Gerwig and Amy Judd.

If I Had Legs I’d Kick You marks the second feature film of the year to capture A$AP Rocky on the big screen. The rapper also appears in Spike Lee’s Highest 2 Lowest, which premiered at the Cannes Film Festival in May. “It’s also the kind of swagger-off that [Denzel Washington] excels at, and that Rocky uses to prove he can match when up against a guy who’s played Malcolm X, Macbeth, and Gladiator II‘s power broker Macrinus,” Rolling Stone‘s David Fear wrote in a review of the film.

“Yeah, don’t sleep on A$AP. In this film, Denzel and A$AP go toe-to-toe,” Lee said on The Tonight Show. “What’s interesting is, even before I got involved with this film, I always thought that A$AP looked like he could be Denzel’s son. There’s a big resemblance. So when you see it on the screen, it adds an element of father and son.”
