Rebel Wilson is stepping behind the camera for her directorial debut with The Deb, a feature film based on the hit Australian musical. The project has been picked up for international sales by Protagonist Pictures, marking a major milestone for Wilson and the creative team.
Produced by Bunya Productions, The Deb is set in small-town Australia and offers a fresh, funny and heartfelt take on friendship, identity and community spirit — themes that resonate strongly with audiences both here and abroad. With Wilson directing and starring, the film promises to bring a distinctly Australian story to the world stage, blending humour, heart and a strong sense of place.
