Lady Bird is coming home to Tubi
Greta Gerwig’s Sacramento coming-of-age favorite is almost ready to break your heart in the funniest way.
Remind MeLady Bird arrived in 2017 and immediately felt like someone had opened a very specific teenage diary and somehow found half of us inside it. The film follows Christine Lady Bird McPherson through senior year, as her dreams of leaving Sacramento collide with money, friendship, first love, Catholic school rules, and a mother who loves her fiercely enough to drive both of them up the wall.
Greta Gerwig’s solo directorial debut has a funny way of making tiny moments feel enormous: a prom plan, a thrift store dress, a college envelope, a car ride that says everything without anyone saying the exact thing. It is warm, sharp, and full of conversations that sound like real families, which means everyone is right, everyone is wrong, and nobody is getting out clean.
Lady Bird is coming to Tubi soon. If you have ever loved your hometown and wanted to escape it at the same time, start making room on your list.
The Cast
Saoirse Ronan
Ronan plays Christine Lady Bird McPherson with all the nerve, humor, and ache of a teenager trying to name herself before the world does it for her. She makes every grand declaration feel funny, fragile, and completely sincere.
Laurie Metcalf
Metcalf’s Marion is a mother running on love, worry, and a budget that never stretches far enough. Her scenes with Ronan have the charge of people who know exactly how to wound each other because they know each other so well.
Tracy Letts
Letts brings a soft, tired sweetness to Larry, Lady Bird’s father and the quietest person in a loud house. He sees his daughter clearly, even when he cannot fix what is hurting around him, and that gentleness matters.
Beanie Feldstein
Feldstein’s Julie gives the movie one of its warmest centers. She is not just the loyal friend on the sidelines, she is a whole person with her own dignity, jokes, and heartbreaks, and the film knows it.
“I am not who you named me. I am who I am becoming.”
Sneak Peek
Why Watch It
Lady Bird is for anyone who has ever been too much at dinner, too sensitive in the car, or convinced a different city would finally turn them into the person they had in mind. It gets the comedy of growing up without sanding down the hurt.
It also has that rare independent-film magic where the rooms, parking lots, thrift stores, and school hallways feel lived in before anyone speaks. Gerwig gives Sacramento texture and affection, while Ronan and Metcalf turn a mother-daughter relationship into a tiny weather system: sunny, stormy, and usually both within the same minute.
Coming soon to Tubi, this is the kind of movie you add to your list because you know it is going to hit a different nerve every time you meet it.
