Zoe Saldaña and Reese Witherspoon Attend Special Screening of Their New Movie, From Scratch

Zoe Saldaña and Reese Witherspoon attended Netflix’s From Scratch Special Screening yesterday, October 17. Held at Netflix Tudum Theater, the duo was joined at the premiere of their new movie by Attica Locke (Showrunner and Co-Creator), Tembi Locke (Author and Co-Creator), Keith David, Judith Scott, Paride Benassai, and Roberta Rigano.

“Inspired by the memoir, From Scratch is a cross-cultural love story that follows Amahle “Amy” Wheeler (played by Zoe Saldaña) an American student studying abroad in Italy, as she meets and falls in love with Lino, a Sicilian chef. Their whirlwind romance faces many unforeseen challenges, including their very different cultural backgrounds; true to real life, it is also infused with lightheartedness and moments of humor that exist alongside the more serious ones. But when Lino is faced with unimaginable health challenges and the couple’s future is threatened, the two families come together to create an extended family unlike any they could have imagined, proving that love crosses all borders”.

The movie will premiere on Netflix this coming Friday, October 21.
