Today, Netflix has announced the release date for its upcoming comedy starring Rebel Wilson. On her Instagram, the Pitch Perfect star posted a first look at the new comedy film and announced to her fans that Senior Year will be released exclusively on the streaming platform on May 13th, 2022.

Senior Year will see Wilson star as a 37-year-old woman who wakes up from a 20-year coma that she fell into after a tragic cheerleading accident she suffered back in high school. After waking up, she decides to go back to school, determined to return to her old status as a high school popular girl and win the prom queen crown she has always dreamed of earning.

In the image posted by Wilson, not much is revealed about the film. However, we do get a good look at Wilson's character and see her in a cheerleading uniform, decked out with glitter and butterfly clips in her hair. Wilson captions the post with:

“Got my butterfly clips and glitter, and I'm ready to head back to 2002! #SeniorYear premieres May 13 on @netflix
