Payback Is Vicious.
It’s the trailer we’ve been waiting for!!! MTV on Monday has released (finally!) the first trailer for its upcoming drama/comedy Sweet/Vicious, which you can check out below!
The kick-ass, new series recently had its world premiere this past weekend at the New York Comic-Con! Stay tuned for our coverage from that!
Starring Taylor Dearden (“Ophelia”) and Eliza Bennett (“Jules”), “Sweet/Vicious” is an offbeat superhero story for the millennial generation. Hell-bent on bringing justice to those who get away with abuse on their college campus, Jules and Ophelia take on double lives as wannabe vigilantes. Filled with clumsy attempts and missteps, the odd-couple pair of antiheroes must balance their new secret life with best friends, parents, love interests, and the metaphorical monsters under their beds.
At the core of the f*cked up, hilarious, heartbreaking world of Jules and Ophelia is the heart of the show: two girls, who never felt like they belonged, finding a home in each other… and trying to kick a lot of ass.
Jules Thomas (Eliza Bennett), the perfect sorority girl, balances her life of being a college student while also serving up vigilante justice on her school’s campus. With her sorority sister Kennedy (Aisha Dee) by her side it seemed like Jules had it all figured out. That is, until Ophelia Mayer (Taylor Dearden), a hell-raising, computer-hacking, weed-dealing trust fund baby who works at a record store has a chance encounter with her and realizes Jules is more than meets the eye. As she starts to uncover the pieces, Ophelia’s law student best friend Harris, (Brandon Mychal Smith) grows increasingly concerned over her new private eye mentality. Under dire circumstances, the two girls come together and develop an unlikely friendship. Meanwhile, Jules meets charming art student Tyler (Nick Fink) at a party and instantly feels a spark, but it isn’t long before the girls realize that Tyler and Jules’ connection is more complicated than it seems. Dylan McTee also stars.
Sweet/Vicious premieres Tuesday, November 15th, at 10pm on MTV.
