Rose Byrne fights to get her car back in the trailer for Tow

Directed by Stephanie Laing, the film stars Rose Byrne, Dominic Sessa, Demi Lovato, Simon Rex, Elsie Fisher, Corbin Bernsen with Ariana DeBose and Octavia Spencer.

Based on a true story, TOW follows Amanda Ogle (Byrne), a woman living in her aging Toyota Camry on the streets of Seattle. When her car — her only lifeline — is stolen and impounded, Amanda is thrust into a relentless legal battle against an indifferent system. What begins as a fight to reclaim her car evolves into a deeply human story of resilience, dignity, and the power of one woman’s voice in the face of systemic failure.

Stephanie Laing had this to say about the film.

We made Tow because Amanda Ogle’s fight wasn’t just about a towing bill—it was about the way a woman living in her car can be buried under a $21,634 fee simply for existing in public space, it exposes a broken system that profits from people who often don’t have the means to seek justice. By putting Amanda’s voice on screen, we wanted to remind people that justice thrives in the lives of people and communities who refuse to be erased by a process that depends on their silence, a message that feels more resonant every day. Rose Byrne was the perfect actor to embody Amanda and her fight due to Rose’s combination of vulnerability, intelligence, and defiance, which she manages to wrap in humor and heart. Rose’s performance is grounded in Amanda’s truth, so the audience doesn’t just witness a battle against a corrupt system, they feel the cost of it.

Tow hits US cinemas on 20th March 2026.
