Eenie Meanie Debuts on Hulu with Samara Weaving’s Twist Ending Sparking Buzz

August 22, 2025 – The action-crime film Eenie Meanie launched on Hulu today. It’s the first feature directed by Shawn Simmons. The movie tells the story of Edie “Eenie Meanie” (Samara Weaving), a reformed teen getaway driver. She is pulled back into a high-stakes casino heist. It launched for streaming at midnight UTC.

Early reviews are mixed. Some praise the film’s practical stunts and Weaving’s acting. Others criticize the uneven screenplay. Samara Weaving stars in horror comedies like Ready or Not (2019) and Scream VI (2023). She leads a cast that features Karl Glusman as Edie’s ex-boyfriend John and Andy Garcia as crime boss Nico.

In an exclusive interview tied to the release, Weaving admitted she misled the production about her driving skills. She then took a rigorous crash course to perform many of the stunts herself. She talked about the film’s unique ending. In it, Edie breaks free from her caretaker role to focus on her own happiness. Weaving praises this choice for challenging traditional gender expectations.

The film’s official synopsis says Edie is “a reformed teenage getaway driver pulled back into her shady past when a former boss gives her a chance to save her unreliable ex-boyfriend’s life.” Eenie Meanie offers a mix of exciting car chases and rich character drama. It tries to balance thrills with emotional moments. Now, it’s ready for Hulu subscribers everywhere.
