Chicago, go big and see Little early and for free

What do you get when you take the movie Big, throw it in a blender with Issa Rae, Regina Hall, and one of the kids from Black-ish, flip the gender-swap switch, and press “puree?” You get Little, starring Hall as a demanding tech executive, Rae as her harried assistant, and Marsai Martin as the 13-year-old corporeal form in which Hall finds her adult consciousness oh-so-inconveniently trapped. So like Big, but in reverse. Plus, in a fun little moment of life imitating art, Martin set a new record as the youngest executive producer in Hollywood history after successfully pitching the idea to producer Will Packard.
