New Angelyne Trailer Shows Billboard Queen's Rise to Stardom
The new trailer for the NBC Peacock's biographical mini-series Angelyne chronicles the Hollywood billboard queen's rise to stardom. Based on The Hollywood Reporter's 2017 investigative article that finally revealed the woman's real name, the upcoming series will star Emmy Rossum as Angelyne, a multi-media personality who gained fame through a series of prominent billboards displayed in and around Los Angeles, California, in the 1980s. Before the advent of social media and influencers, Angelyne proved to be one of the progenitors of flashy self-promotion, scoring her minor roles in such films as Homer and Eddie and Earth Girls Are Easy with Jim Carrey and Damon Wayans, as well as releasing multiple music albums at the height of her fame.

The trailer features a near unrecognizable Emmy Rossum in layers of makeup and a blonde wig to recreate Angelyne's iconic look. Angelyne teases the personality's relentless victories, joyous personal victories, and inevitable fall. Check out the trailer for the new mini-series below.
