“You are Amanda Ogle and you are going to get your car back!” “Not just for you, for all of us.” Roadside Attractions has revealed an official trailer for an acclaimed new movie called Tow, the latest from filmmaker Stephanie Laing. This orignially premiered at the Santa Barbara, Tribeca, Nantucket, and Galway Film Festivals last year. The true story of Amanda Ogle (Byrne), a homeless Seattle woman who fought her way out of tow-company hell to reclaim her life and car after receiving a tow bill for $21,634. Heck yes, you fight ’em! What begins as a fight to reclaim her car evolves into a deeply human story of resilience, dignity, and the power of one woman’s voice in the face of systemic failure. Rose Byrne stars alongside Dominic Sessa, Demi Lovato, Simon Rex, with Academy Award winner Ariana Debose, and Academy Award winner Octavia Spencer in Tow. This looks wacky and amusing, though more upsetting watching her fight the system. Doesn’t seem as good as If I Had Legs I’d Kick You, still worth watching just for the Byrne again.
Here’s the official trailer (+ poster) for Stephanie Laing’s film Tow, direct from Roadside’s YouTube:
Based on a true story, Tow follows Amanda Ogle (Rose Byrne), a woman living out of her aging Toyota Camry on the streets of Seattle. When her car — her only lifeline — is stolen and impounded, Amanda is thrust into a relentless legal battle against an indifferent system. What begins as a fight to reclaim her car evolves into a deeply human story of resilience, dignity, and the power of one woman’s voice in the face of systemic failure. Tow is directed by the filmmaker Stephanie Laing, director of the movies Lady Secret, Irreplaceable You, and Family Squares previously, plus tons of TV work including eps of “Physical”, “Your Friends & Neighbors”, “The Better Sister”, and “Palm Royale” most recently. The screenplay is by Jonathan Keasey & Brant Boivin. Produced by Brent Stiefel, Stephanie Laing, Samantha Nisenboim, Rose Byrne, Danyelle Foord, Josh Ricks. This premiered at the 2025 Santa Barbara & Tribeca Film Festivals. Roadside Attractions debuts Laing’s Tow film in select US theaters starting March 20th, 2026. Want to watch this?
