Ask E. Jean
Director: Ivy Meeropol Run Time: 91 min. Format: DCP Release Year: 2025
Pulsating and stylish on the surface while unflinchingly introspective at its core, ASK E. JEAN is the thrilling story of E. Jean Carroll’s life, from her early days as Miss Cheerleader USA to her rise as a trailblazing journalist, author, and beloved advice columnist, collecting a legion of fans, her own talk show, and two Emmy nods along the way. Carroll broke barriers as the first female editor at Esquire, Playboy, and Outside, helping to redefine women’s roles in media with her sharp wit and fearless voice. In recent years, she reignited public discourse by standing up to power, becoming the only woman to beat Donald Trump twice in court, and sparking a national conversation about truth, accountability, and resilience. Director Ivy Meeropol (Heir to an Execution, After the Bite) has crafted a striking portrait of an indomitable woman that shows it’s never too late to reclaim your voice, own your story, and change the world.
