Synopsis

Ella McCay (2025) is a political comedy-drama from 20th Century Studios and Gracie Films you can watch online on iFILM. Academy Award-winning writer-director James L. Brooks tells the story of a young idealist who suddenly finds herself inheriting the governor's office — and everything that comes with it.

Emma Mackey plays Ella, a politician laser-focused on doing the job right. Her family has other ideas. Dad Eddie (Woody Harrelson) keeps creating chaos, Mom Claire (Rebecca Hall) keeps her cards close, and Aunt Helen (Jamie Lee Curtis) never runs short of opinions. Jack Lowden plays Ryan, Ayo Edebiri plays Susan, and Albert Brooks rounds out the cast as the outgoing Governor Bill.

Brooks built his career on films about love and the mess it makes — from Terms of Endearment to Broadcast News. Ella McCay lands squarely in that tradition. Stream it on iFILM.
