Ayo Edebiri is one busy actor. The Bear star’s latest movie, Omni Loop, just premiered at SXSW to critical acclaim, and the sci-fi film currently has a perfect score of 100% on Rotten Tomatoes.
This time loop movie follows physicist Zoya (The West Wing’s Mary-Louise Parker), who’s been told she has a week left to live due to a black hole in her chest. This isn’t news to Zoya, though – she’s heard it dozens of times before as, when her last week comes to an end, she pops a pill that takes her back seven days. Edebiri plays quantum physics student Paula, who Zoya enlists to help her harness the – rather limited – time travel ability at her disposal.
Critics are full of praise for the latest effort from writer-director Bernardo Britto.
