Keke Palmer, Naomi Ackie, Taylour Paige, LaKeith Stanfield and more star in Boots Riley’s new film
Keke Palmer enlists a stylish team to pull off a heist in I Love Boosters.
On Tuesday, Jan. 27, Neon released the first trailer for the ensemble comedy that stars Palmer, 32, alongside Naomi Ackie, Taylour Paige, LaKeith Stanfield, Poppy Liu, Eiza González, Will Poulter, Don Cheadle and Demi Moore.
“A crew of professional shoplifters takes aim at a cutthroat fashion maven,” reads a synopsis for the movie. “It’s like community service.”
The movie is writer-director Boots Riley’s first since his 2018 satirical comedy Sorry to Bother You, which starred Stanfield, 34, as a telemarketer who begins achieving success when he puts on an accent at work. Sorry to Bother You won an Independent Spirit Award in 2019 for the Best First Feature award.

Riley noted that Cheadle’s casting in the movie was a surprise when he shared the movie’s poster on Instagram Monday, Jan. 26. “Oh yeah- and we were keeping it a surprise, but then we thought F— THE SURPRISE,” he wrote. “Don Cheadle is also in this, and he’s brilliant.”

I Love Boosters is Palmer’s first movie to release in 2026. She had a busy 2025 with appearances in movies like One of Them Days, The Pickup and Good Fortune. For Moore, I Love Boosters is her first film since her award-winning performance in 2024’s The Substance.
I Love Boosters will make its world premiere at SXSW on March 12, as Deadline reported in December. The movie is in theaters May 22.
