I’m a Virgo: Release date, trailer, cast, plot & more
Amazon Prime VideoI’m a Virgo is a new high-concept comedy from visionary filmmaker Boots RileY. Here’s everything you need to know about the show, including its release date, trailer, cast, plot, and more.
Boots Riley is a rapper and political activist who burst onto the film scene with his feature debut Sorry to Bother You in 2018.
That brilliant satire starred Lakeith Stanfield as an African-American telemarketer who finds success when he sounds white on the phone.
His new TV series appears to be equally satirical, so here’s everything you need to know about the show, from release date and trailer, to cast, plot, and more.
