'BABYSTAR' Official Trailer (2026) | Family Influencer Satire | @MetisFilms

Watch the official trailer for 'BABYSTAR', a biting satirical drama from director Joscha Bongard, released in UK and Irish cinemas by Metis Films.

Luca lives in a big house with loving parents and millions of followers on social media. She appears to have everything a teenage girl could wish for — but Luca never chose this life.

Being an influencer is the family business, and her parents make it clear that she must play her part to keep the sponsors coming.

When her parents plan to extend the family, Luca begins to question whether she can remain the only “babystar”, or whether she is as expendable as her last Instagram story.

Written by Joscha Bongard and Nicole Rüthers, 'BABYSTAR' stars Maja Bons, Bea Brocks, Liliom Lewald, Joy Ewulu, Maximilian Mundt and Verena Altenberger.

After premiering at the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival, 'BABYSTAR' arrives in UK and Irish cinemas from September 25, 2026.
