Lili Reinhart, Jennifer Lopez, Keke Palmer, and Constance Wu star in HUSTLERS

We have our first look at Jennifer Lopez, Constance Wu, Cardi B and Lizzo play members of a squad of New York strippers shaking down Wall Street in the first trailer for Hustlers.

Inspired by true events, and adapted from Jessica Pressler’s viral New York Magazine story “The Hustlers at Scores,” the film tells the story of a group of New York strippers who drugged and robbed a number of Wall Street bankers in the months after the 2008 stock market crash.

The video opens with Jennifer Lopez offering Constance Wu a lesson on how to work a stripper pole like a pro.

“Front hook. Ankle hook. Knee hook,” Lopez says as she wraps an acrylic heel around the pole.

“From here you can do the carousel,” she continues, then swings from the pole.

Keke Palmer, Lili Reinhart, Trace Lysette and Madeline Brewer are among the members of Lopez’s crew, while Julia Stiles portrays the journalist chasing the story.

This is the synopsis for the film:

Hustlers follows a crew of savvy former strip club employees who band together to turn the tables on their Wall Street clients. The film was inspired by the article published by New York Magazine entitled “The Hustlers at Scores” written by Jessica Pressler.

Just how bad can one day get? The creative minds behind Superbad, Pineapple Express and Sausage Party take on sixth grade hard in the outrageous comedy, Good Boys.

After being invited to his first kissing party, 12-year-old Max (Room’s Jacob Tremblay) is panicking because he doesn’t know how to kiss.

Williams, Fox’s The Last Man On Earth) decide to use Max’s dad’s drone – which Max is forbidden to touch – to spy (they think) on a teenage couple making out next door.

But when things go ridiculously wrong, the drone is destroyed. Desperate to replace it before Max’s dad (Will Forte, The Last Man on Earth) gets home, the boys skip school and set off on an odyssey of epically bad decisions involving some accidentally stolen drugs, frat-house paintball, and running from both the cops and terrifying teenage girls (Life of the Party’s Molly Gordon and Ocean’s Eight’s Midori Francis).
