In the trailer for Drag, Lizzy Caplan's bad back bungles break-in

In the trailer for the upcoming home-invasion comedy Drag, Lizzy Caplan's portrayal of a character with a bad back complicates a break-in heist. The film follows two sisters, Lizzy Caplan and Lucy DeVito, as they rob a luxurious home in rural upstate New York. However, their plan quickly unravels when Caplan injures her back, prompting the homeowner, John Stamos, to unexpectedly return.

The trailer hints at a thrilling heist where DeVito must safely extricate Caplan from the house without alarming the enigmatic owner or his guest, Christine Ko. Both Raviv Ullman and Greg Yagolnitzer, the film's writers and directors, are making their feature film debuts. Ullman is also known for his roles in R.J. Decker, Broad City, and Criminal Minds, while Yagolnitzer has directed music videos for Green Day and Weezer.

Following its debut at SXSW, Drag has garnered favorable reviews. DeVito humorously declares, "I think the only option is to drag you out of here," offering a tantalizing glimpse into the film's potential. The film's mystery lies in the identity of those the sisters are targeting, whether Stamos represents a threat or Ko poses a danger, and how DeVito will rescue Caplan. All these questions will be answered when Drag hits theaters on January 29, 2027.
