Boots Riley Is Back With ‘I Love Boosters’
by Tito W. James
Boots Riley has one one of the most unique contemporary voices working today. With Sorry To Bother You and I’m A Virgo, Riley created an afro-surrealistic alternate-reality that acts as a funhouse mirror to the society we live in. His latest film, I Love Boosters, follows a group of shoplifters who take aim at a cutthroat fashion maven. The film stars Keke Palmer (Nope), Demi Moore (The Substance), Naomi Ackie (The End of the F***ing World), Hannah Alline (Doom Patrol), and LaKeith Stanfield (Judas and the Black Messiah). Lovers of innovative indie filmmaking should keep an eye out for I Love Boosters on May 22nd, 2026.
