Emma Roberts Blasts Off in Prime Video’s “Space Cadet” this July

Prime Video is preparing for liftoff with their new space-age comedy “Space Cadet,” starring everyone’s favorite rom-com queen Emma Roberts. Directed and written by Liz W. Garcia (known for her work on “Purple Hearts” and “The Sinner”), the film promises a hilarious and heartwarming journey that’s set to premiere on the streaming service this Independence Day, July 4th.

“Space Cadet” centers around Tiffany “Rex” Simpson (Roberts), a dreamer whose sights are set on the stars. Stuck in a less-than-ideal situation, Rex makes a bold decision to take a chance and apply for NASA’s prestigious astronaut training program. With a little help and some creative embellishment from her best friend Nadine (Poppy Liu), Rex finds herself unexpectedly thrust into a highly competitive group of elite candidates.

Out of her depth but brimming with determination, Rex must rely on her quick wit, unwavering moxie, and can-do spirit to navigate the program’s rigorous challenges. Supervising this group of hopeful astronauts are the no-nonsense program directors Pam (played by the ever-fabulous Gabrielle Union) and Logan (Tom Hopper). As Rex progresses through the training, a crucial question hangs in the air: will she be able to overcome the odds, earn her coveted spot among the stars, and all the while keep her little secret about her embellished application under wraps?

“Space Cadet” promises to be much more than just a laugh-out-loud comedy. It’s a story about self-discovery, the power of believing in yourself, and the courage to chase your dreams no matter how far-fetched they may seem. The film boasts a stellar supporting cast alongside Roberts and Liu, including seasoned actors like Gabrielle Union and Tom Hopper, along with rising stars like Kuhoo Verma and Desi Lydic. With a dash of romance (thanks to the presence of Colombian pop star Sebastián Yatra) and a healthy dose of humor, “Space Cadet” is shaping up to be a must-watch for anyone who has ever dared to dream big.

So, mark your calendars, set a reminder, and get ready to blast off into laughter with Emma Roberts and the crew of “Space Cadet” this July 4th on Prime Video!
