First Trailer for 'The Duff' stars Mae Whitman as the Designated Ugly Fat Friend



If there's anything we learned from Mean Girls it's that high school girls can be...well, pretty darn mean; especially to other girls who are supposedly their friends. Mae Whitman has built her career on playing either unremarkable girls (her??) on Arrested Development, or the rejected girl like in The Perks of Being a Wallflower, but in The Duff she gets a little bit of revenge on the mean girls in school.

After co-star Bella Thorne (Blended) had teased the trailer on her Instagram a few days ago, the first official trailer for The Duff has been released. Based on the Kody Keplinger book and directed by Ari Sandel, the film stars Whitman as the "designated ugly fat friend" of her clique of hot friends, and sets out to get some payback. In true She's All That fashion, she gets a cool makeover from a hunky dude (Robbie Amell) in an attempt to raise her social status.

So basically this looks like something that should be on The Disney Channel, but otherwise pretty inoffensive....except for the presence of Ken Jeong.  The Duff opens February 19th 2015.
