Vertical Entertainment unveiled the US trailer and set a streaming release date for their Milli Vanilli biopic GIRL YOU KNOW IT’S TRUE, which will launch in theaters and on VOD and digital platforms on August 9th, 2024.

Girl You Know It's True is about the controversial late-1980s/early-1990s music duo Milli Vanilli, who caused one of the most infamous scandals in international pop music history. Simon Verhoeven wrote, directed and co-produced, and the film stars Tijan Njie and Elan Ben Ali as the lip-synching stage artists Rob Pilatus and Fabrice Morvan respectively, as well as Matthias Schweighöfer as the instigating music producer/manager Frank Farian.

In the film, successful music producer Frank Farian hires dancers Rob Pilatus and Fab Morvan and helps the two friends to skyrocketing success. Under the name Milli Vanilli, Rob and Fab storm the international charts, land three number one hits in the USA and enjoy the extravagant life in Hollywood. Only a small circle of insiders know their secret: the duo don't sing themselves, they just move their lips - to the voices of the real singers. At the height of their fame, Rob and Fab even win a Grammy, but the situation behind the scenes becomes increasingly tense and Milli Vanilli threatens to become the biggest scandal in music history. Not only the truth is at stake, but also their friendship...
