Director Jennifer Kaytin Robinson on Her Sophomore Film, ‘Do Revenge’

Jennifer Kaytin Robinson is the director as well as a co-writer and producer for Netflix’s Do Revenge. The new dark comedy is now streaming, only on Netflix!

Drea (Camila Mendes) is at the peak of her high school powers as the Alpha it-girl on campus when her entire life goes up in flames after her sex tape gets leaked to the whole school, seemingly by her boyfriend and king of the school, Max (Austin Abrams). Eleanor (Maya Hawke) is an awkward new transfer student who is angered to find out that she now has to go to school with her old bully, Carissa (Ava Capri) who started a nasty rumor about her in summer camp when they were 13. After a clandestine run-in at tennis camp, Drea and Eleanor form an unlikely and secret friendship to get revenge on each other’s tormentors.

Robinson is known for her work on Thor: Love and Thunder, Sweet/Vicious, and Someone Great.

We had an insightful conversation about finding the right tone for Do Revenge, the stellar cast, her favorite moments from filming, and more.
