Majka Je¿owska: I’m looking at Jennifer Coolidge who says she was in the dark d… She talks about it as I do

The main character of the film is Piotr, played by Bartosz Gelner. He is a law firm employee who led a minimalist lifestyle during his studies. It backfires now. When he’s not at the office, he’s on the hunt. Piotr is successful with women thanks to his looks and style. Hedonistic, but not selfish. Subconsciously, he never wanted to be a man like his father: betraying his partner at every turn. Piotr’s mother is played by Majka Je¿owska, for whom “Pokolenie Ikea” is the first full-length production. As the singer emphasizes in an interview with Gazeta.pl, she is glad that she does not receive proposals from her peers, but from young people such as the director and screenwriter of “Ikea Generation”, Dawid Gral.

Majka Jeżowska wants to get out of the drawer and play

The singer told Justyna Bryczkowska:

Now I’m looking at the great popularity of Jennifer Coolidge – mother of Stifler from “American Pie”. She herself says in interviews that she was in the dark ass. No one invited her, no one offered her anything. She was finished. He talks about it in an interview like I do. One man believed that this was the role for her and he persisted.

– These are young people: Ariana Grande invited Jennifer Coolidge to her music video, last year PROBL8M rappers invited me to a joint hip-hop tour. It must come from young people who are not afraid to cooperate, I don’t know, with a “legend”, with an icon, with someone older, who is in a slightly different drawer, but wants to get out of this drawer and wants to have fun – explains Majka Jeżowska. You can find the whole interview on Gazeta.pl on March 2.

Jennifer Coolidge gained popularity in 1999 thanks to “American Pie”, but then for many years she did not get any major offers. In 2021, the series “White Lotus” premiered, which Mike White created with the actress in mind. The production itself was very well received by reviewers and viewers, and Jennifer Coolidge received for her role, among others Golden Globe, Emmy and SAG Awards.

The Ikea Generation hits theaters

The Ikea Generation is a high-profile, best-selling novel by Peter C., first published over 10 years ago by Novae Res. The rights to publish it in episodes were bought by the Angora weekly, but the book turned out to be so controversial that after a few months, under pressure from readers, the magazine’s bosses decided to stop reprinting. This did not prevent the “Ikea Generation” from achieving stunning sales of 150,000 copies for a debut.

Apart from Gelner and Jeżowska, the film Grala also stars: Michalina Olszańska, Majka Jeżowska, Paweł Małaszyński, Jan Aleksandrowicz-Krasko, Karolina Gorczyca, S³awomir Mandes, Mateusz Dymidziuk, Dagmara Bryzek, Adrianna Izydorczyk, Zuzanna Galewicz, Marta Bryła. The premiere of the production is scheduled for March 3, 2023.
