Uglies | Official Trailer | Netflix
/ @netflix
In a futuristic dystopia with enforced beauty standards, a teen awaiting mandatory cosmetic surgery embarks on a journey to find her missing friend.
Never in a million years would I see this series being adapted. It's been years.
it's about plastic surgery?
So pretty
@@fbafoundationalbuck-broken6011 Just read the book, it's not terribly long and it's a really fun page-turner.
What is this about is looking good
@@fbafoundationalbuck-broken6011
they mean because it’s based on a book and it’s been out for quite a while
Read this book when I was 13…. I’m 31 now. Millennial teen bookworms reunite! 😂What an unexpected blast from the past to see this adaption pop up on my feed. I remember reading the sequel but never did find out how the series ends. The message of the book is more relevant than ever today.
You should give the series another try!
I never finished it yall, I'm 31 as well. I was convinced I made up the books in my mind because no one at least around me talked about it.
Now I need to see how the series ends.
They have 2 books after! Specials and Extras. And they are short reads
I’m Gen Z and read all of the books in the series!
@@Grace-jb7me Yeah, plus there was a gap between publications and then boom.
Yall i was OBSESSED with this series in middle school... I'm 27 now😂
I'm 30 lol.
22 and still obsessed. Lol
@@jumboscorpion I was rereading them last year and I had to stop after Pretties because I got too annoyed with how the plot was going😂
SAME! I’m 32 now 😅
ME TOO lol
FYI for everyone who hasn't read the books, "ugly" just means they're a normal person. When they become "pretty" they get extensive plastic surgery, their face becomes perfectly symmetrical, and they look so perfect it borders on uncanny valley (among other things...). The terms are societal designations for people who have or haven't had the surgeries yet rather than a remark on attractiveness.
So yes, these actors do fit the book definition of "ugly". As would everyone in our current society.
The could at least make "the ugly" actors let run around without makeup on their faces.
but the pretty ones in this movie looks ugly than the ''ugly'' ones is funny, Never read the books new here
@@eleonorabilokin983why? That's the point, you silly melon, no matter how much make u have on you'd still be considered ugly just because your face is natural
Again, the term isn't about how conventionally attractive the person is. It's just about who got the surgery and who didn't.
what about the ugly people? what are they called lol
For those who didn’t read the books: the point isn’t that they were ugly until they had the surgery, it was that they had been made to believe they were ugly unless they underwent the surgery. It’s a commentary on our own beauty culture.
There was way more in the serries as a whole but of course they are only going to use this one idea
@@AshePBlack100% true. My comment was for the people who were commenting about how the actors were already very pretty, so calling them “ugly” was “immersion breaking” for them
Yup. There’s literally a scene where she sees a supermodel from the Rusty era and is shocked that such an Ugly girl is happy. I just hope they add in the acne and minimize the makeup.
Why are 100000 people commenting this exact comment
i love how average looking people always find a way to make them feel like they're the victims while they bullied and look down on the real unfortunate looking ones
I always wondered why all the other dystopian novels of my teenage years got turned into movies except this one. Im so ready for this series adaptation!!!
It was greenlit back in 2006 ND immediately entered Development Hell. They finally got to filming in 2021, finished in 2022, and are just now releasing it. Hopefully they don't ruin it! 🤞
Uglies, Pretties, Specials, AND Extras. THEY BETTER MAKE THE WHOLE SERIES
Just in case you didn't know there is also a sequel series if you are itching for more of the world while waiting for the movie, it's called The Imposters, there's 4 books and they are just as good!
Extras would be really challenging for them to adapt. I would be fine with just the main trilogy.
omg I'd loooove for them to make extras ! It predicted so many things !!! It literally predicted the influencers era
OMG HELL YEA!!! This was my favorite book series.
I sadly don’t think they will. So happy they’re finally doing this, I read the books when they first came out early 2000’s! But I feel the dystopian teen camp era is kind of finished on film so this already feels like a has-been 😢
I get the feeling that this movie has been in development hell for like 6 years or something because all the cast look so much younger than they actually are now.
For like 4 years, yeah
This plot makes little.....actually no sense at all. So basically, it's a war based on looks. At least with books like THE GIVER the ploy to have humans void of memories/emotions to create a "perfect" society made some sense.
@@Mysterio1412 The book actually elaborates more on this, it's not just looks. The surgery the people receive in the world of the Uglies also alters their brains, hence affecting their emotions and desires. Post-surgery, the teens in the Uglies become very carefree, fun-loving, and artificially happy, like wearing a permanent set of rose-tinted glasses to the extreme. This was in efforts to reduce and/or nullify any semblance of behavior that could be problematic (freedom of thought, intelligence to a degree, and all the other emotions that contribute to potential conflict/problems: anger, jealousy, frustration, embarrassment, grief, sadness). The overall concept was: if everyone looked great and felt great all the time, how would problems ever arise in society? Flawed logic, yes, but that's the base of every real and fictional system.
@@Mysterio1412read the series of books! It was my favorite one over maze runner, hunger games and divergent
@@Mysterio1412 have you even read any of the material...?
Words cannot describe the pain I feel at the fact that this book is finally getting an adaptation… and it’s being made by Netflix.
Tiktok guys, don't annoy me. *"Uglies" in the book series doesn't mean that you're actually ugly.* It only means that you're natural, with makeup on or without. You can only be considered pretty if you have your face and body remade completely. And if you think "remade" people look weird, that's how it's supposed to be. Kylie Jenner inspired, I'd say. Perfect time for this book to get a live action, everyone is so used to influencers and celebrities changing themselves under the knife that natural beauty is "not enough". But as soon as you "fix yourself" people say "it's used to be better, you look fake". Paradox, these books were great in capturing this thing.
Thank you
Ty for your explanation 🥹🫶
Thank you for saying this I'm getting soooo frustrated by the people who didn't read the books misunderstanding the definition of Uglies 😭
Oh, I see. Thank you! I was about to type out a very long rant!
And the main character and love interests just happened to be really hot.
Interesting how Scott Westerfelt, the author, was talking about the damage beauty standards may cause in the beginning of 2000s and how society doesn't realise the problem. They can only say "if you're natural - there's a space to be improved", "if you got plastic surgeries - you're ruined". There's no winning no matter how beautiful you are.
*And now almost 20 years later people are still the same. Just take a look at the comment section. "They casted pretty actors as uglies" - you never learn, Scott was right.*
It's just Tiktok guys are trying to embarrass themselves 😭i think majority of people understand this. At least i hope so
Louder pls
I see Netflix gave in to the woke grifters.
@@craigackeret do u people never shut up 😭
I believe it's Westerfeld*

Hmm ys@@841-zainabshanafarook7
every one complaining that the "Uglies" arent ugly... THATS THE POINT
it's a social comentary on the capitalisation of beauty standards and ultra consumerism. We are constantly told that there's always more we can do/buy to look better, diet, weight loss supplements, botox, lypo suction, plastic surgery, etc. That if you buy this product it will make you "pretty" but it's all a lie. You will never feel pretty enough because if you learn to love yourself and feel pretty you will stop buying products to make yourself "pretty" the "Uglies" in this series are people who haven't had the alteration surgery. They are labeled as Ugly by society because society wants them to not feel good enough. The point is weather you have had cosmetic surgery, or not, you will always be made to feel inadequate. Even people who are conventionally attractive still have thoughts of not being pretty enough, slim enough, curvy enough, tall enough, short enough, etc. and fall victim to the predatory nature of the beauty industry. And once you have had cosmetic surgery (even if you personally love yourself in your new skin) there will still be those who call you "fake" "unnatural" "trying too hard" or "weird looking". You will never be seen as pretty by everyone. The prettiest person alive is still an ugly.
Yo calm down. Most people haven't read the books so how are they supposed to know that? It's a valid criticism for people to associate the term with not being good looking.
FFS ITS A REMAKE OF LOGANS RUN. GET A GRIP. NOT EVEN YOUR PRECIOUS BOOKS ARE ORIGINAL
But there are objectively unattractive looking people. The point should be that looks aren't important?
You write this novella of a comment and yet still miss the irony of Hollywood making a movie about the capitalisation of beauty standards and yet still being incapable of casting unattractive people because of it.
Hmmm I don’t know that lead actress is pretty ugly
I like how the "uglies" are better looking than anyone that I know in real life. That really helps the immersion
Right?
I haven’t read the books, but I think the point is that imperfect doesn’t equal ugly. So it actually makes sense to me that the “uglies” are just normal movie actors
that is the point. In the books no one is ugly per say, they are just called that.
I know I was about to put this comment "so it's about pretty people against pretty people?" but people already made a comment with the same meaning. It's also doing a cliche that is popular in the 90's where in movies made for young people the main character who is supposedly the most bullied for being "ugly" or "nerd looking" is usually an attractive person. 1993 Airborne, 1999 10 Things I Hate About You, and etc.
@@diawolf8125it would be funner to watch if the “uglies” were actually ugly.
This is like a hidden memory that just dug up from my brain. I remember loving the books.
Damn, I remember reading this as a teen. I'm now 35. Where has the time gone? 😂
I took them from you.
The joys of getting older you get adapted books into movies!!! I’m so excited
Girl same, I’m 32. Reread the series like three times as a kid. Been waiting years! But Joey king is a great actress so I’m definitely excited to give it a chance.
Same!
Love the author but they will change some themes because movies have agendas. Scott also wrote mid nighters and other sci fy. You get to end of serries you realize they made of medical gunk if too much surgery I mean that's not worst slight social commentary there is more
The Divergent vibes are strong with this one
Fun fact: The book series this movie is based on actually predates Divergent as well as The Hunger Games! It is looked at as one of the early YA dystopian books that helped stir up interest in the genre that lead to the huge number of them in the late 2000s/early 2010s (along with books like The Giver and Feed that came even earlier than Uglies). I honestly never thought this series would get adapted just because it has been so long and films based on YA dystopian books have kind of fallen out of fashion, but it will be so cool to see it finally adapted to the screen almost 20 years after the book was published!
@@kathleencarroll5645So they did things first. Did they make them better? Series will tell
@@ogurasyn2354from my memory, this series was definitely not better than the hunger games, but was better than divergent. it has been well over a decade since I re-read them though
@@ogurasyn2354 It isn't better or worse, the books just laid the groundwork for what came after. I'm excited to see the ways the creators may change the source material from the book to the film based around how later YA books (and the film adaptions of those books) approached ideas they have in common. I personally find it interesting that the books came before but now the film adaption will have to be built with content that was created after in mind since most viewers will naturally compare the Uglies film to popular dystopian YA content like Divergent and Hunger Games.
This is the series that inspired Divergent!
I read this series over and over in middle school and when shays story came out I screamed cause she was so underrated, I’m so excited for this!!!!
tally lowkey did her dirty in the books, i hope we get to see shays character properly developed here
You screamed ? Sure

I can't believe they are finally adapting this series. I did my 8th grade book report on this series. LMFAO
ME TOO! I WAS LITERALLY READING THIS YESTERDAY CAUSE IT WAS KINDA GOOD AND I THOUGHT ABOUT IT BEING ADAPTED WTF AND THIS HAPPENS TODAY
Y’all I read this like 10+ years ago and never imagined it would be adapted!
It's the fact that they talked about making this a movie back in 2007-2008 when I was a freshman in high school and here it is 15 years later on Netflix. It's definitely found it's platform, way to go Scott Westerfield.
Omg this was my favorite book series as a teenager and now I'm 32. Best week ever. I've been wanting this movie for like 15 years omg
Oh my gosh, same thing I read that series and loved it
@micheliewelly yes! when I was a teenager, I remember I Googled live action casting because I wanted to try out for her best friend's role 😂
@@angelataraxy really that would have been cool maybe in the sequel movie you can play her im hoping they make the rest of the series into movies
I’m happy for you
I’ve been waiting since I was a teenager for these books to become a movie. I’ve recommended this series to my kids multiple times, and always said I couldn’t believe it had never been adapted for the screen. I love to see this!
Futuristic hunger games/divergent vibes, I'm here for it
funnily enough Uglies actually came out first and it's the last of these 3 to be adapted 😂 Uglies came out in 2005, Hunger Games in 2008, and Divergent in 2011 (I just looked it up because I was curious not so I could flex my knowledge or anything lol)
Fun fact!❤ divergent, hunger games and maze runner were all inspired by this book series!
@@smolsuko You have to be a next level of stupidity to think that either Hunger Games or Maze Runner were inspired by this children’s series.

Oh THIS is insane,I read this full series in 6th grade so I’m begging them to make this good
Knowing Netflix track records, my guess is there'e 50% chance they might butchered the shii out of it or cancelled the movie series after releasing first movie.
It won’t be and the series sounds awful
@@johnskrip7174 you’re entitled to your opinion and I respect that . I recommend reading the books before you make your decision homework
@@ObiEdits I know 😭 I’m expecting heartbreak but my fingers are crossed that I’m just wrong
I read it 8th grade year
How am i now just seeing this? this was my favorite book series growing up
and i’ve been waiting for this for a longgg time. They really need to step up their marketing for this…
OMG this is finally getting a movie - seriously this should have been done back during the hunger games era of movies
I mean, we're still in the Hunger Games era - one came out recently and another book and movie are on their way.
YESSSS
It might have been harder to do it back then. Now they can just use filters over the actor's faces to give them the Uncanny Valley Look they gave them. I always figured the one reason why "Unwind" didn't get an adaption is because it would be harder to make people look like they're made up of other people's body parts, which gives a lot of them an unnatural appearance.
No it’s the timing of it and everyone would be comparing them so maybe it’s best that it didn’t 😂
Idk I'm kind of glad it's come now that hunger games is over and movie technology has improved. *It's their time to shine.*
Convinced Joey King must have a Devil's bargain with Netflix
zionist company zionist actor
they saw an ugly zionist and the casting director said yes instantly!
She has a first-look deal after the success of "The Kissing Booth."
@@johnsmi213 there also success as poppy Prescott from despicable me 4
just like adam sandler he also has a deal with netflix
I got to work on this movie. I made Laverne Cox, Dr Cable, the tall black lady in the white outfit, pretty. Smaller nose, thinner chin/neck, clear skin, Grey eyes. Funny thing is, she looks better when she does her own makeup. I made some of the hoverboard effects too. Can't wait to see it.
Omg, I've been hearing rumors for YEARS about this series being adapted but I NEVER thought it would be!!
Right!? I had almost given up entirely, even when it was announced for Netflix like 2 years ago, and here it is!!! At last!!!! ❤❤❤
Now we have to wait for them to adapt

@@MoneyMadeKade movie it’s a trilogy movie
Keep it going Netflix!!!!! 🙏
I really hope they don’t try to cram multiple books into one movie but it didn’t seem like it from the trailer
My jaw dropped when I saw the trailer name. This book series was incredible and underrated ! It's finally going to get the adaptation it deserves
Same!! I immediately thought this must be a fake trailer until I saw that it's from Netflix
Yo, I got chills bc I could still identify every character after all these years. Shay, Zane, Dr. Cable 😊😊😊 I’m so ready
Sammmeeee!!
zane doest show up until pretties
They should have made the pretties way more drastic, i remember reading the book and being shook at how she finds models and celebrities to be Uglies.
That's how it started, before they could surgery, models and celebs were prettiest of normal ppl then their cultures science evolved, sure they could surpass models and more ppl could look pretty for a price. But more do surgery more abnormal body was with all the medical gunk
Why would they do the 2rd one first that makes no sense
I agree !
yeah but from my vague memory of the books when they turn in to pretties dont they have their brains altered? so their perception of appearances is most likely due to the brainwashing they go through during the surgery. The ones who should have the most drastic and uncanny appearance is the specials
@@tete-rh5xoyes, the whole point of the surgery is weaponizing people’s need to be “pretty” so their brains can be altered and render them docile and useless until they are old enough for whatever purpose they are assigned to the society. They receive another surgery then as adults to change them again, however they need to, to best benefit their assigned role in society.
I literally just stumbled on my old copies of these books yesterday... was not expecting to see a live-action trailer today 😅 Uglies is one of the first YA dystopian series I ever read, and I definitely recommend it to any curious newcomers!
If SpagBol isn’t mentioned or shown at least once I will riot
top important things about uglies:
-hoverboard
-scathing commentary on industrial beauty complex, anti-environmentalism, anti-intellectualism
-SpagBol
I love these types of movies of people who don't conform, and they rebel against society. These movies are needed, especially rn with social media and so many people not seeing their own unique beauty.
yesss I love dystopians!!!!
I literally just screamed when I heard "Tally, time to wake up".... Cause ain't no way I thought this would have been adapted. I read all the books in this series and I'm so excited right now
Man after waiting 15 years to see this I got chills seeing "The smoke lives"
i have waited 16 YEARS for this to be adapted into a film. I'm beyond stoked for this. can't wait
Read this series in high-school. In the 2000's. It's been years. Can't wait for the movie adaptation
middle school me never thought she’d see this day. it’s been YEARS! i’m excited for this adaptation. time to reread the books!!!!
Wish it was a series and not a movie but I'll watch literally anything with Brianne Tju in
It’s a book series. I think movie adaptation is PERFECT. Because the series is the ugliest, but the first book is ugliest, then pretties, then specials, then EXTRAS
@jackdavies1504 At least as a movie it has higher chances of being completed and not cancelled
@@settlerbon9422don't worry they won't do it right anyway and I'm prepping an essay why. It won't be bad it just won't be right
The dystopian era is so back ❤❤❤❤
my first thought is why isn't something like this in theatres I'm so stoked to have a film along the lines of divergent, back. i miss getting excited to see movies like this on the big screen... regardless of how well it does.
Those who are seeing this for the first time. You have to read the books! They are AMAZING!
@@FreebieKitty I want to read them
I’m just here to shower Animal Collective in love and appreciation
I remember when the author came to visit our school and did a reading in the library and had a book stand! I don't think anyone had money to buy a book (I mean our school library had already bought copies we could take out) so I think he was pretty disappointed. But he was nice, and I read the series afterwards and loved it!! Mad to see that they're finally making it into a TV show. It feels like it would be hard to show the Uglies, Pretties and Extras on screen in a way where you can see who's who but not make it goofy or too unnerving. Excited to see this!!
These were my favorite books as a teen. I hope the movies will make it justice, I’m glad it’s finally getting a movie adaptation
Screaming, crying, throwing up. I bought my copy of Uglies at a Scholastic book fair when I was a kid. I’ve read the whole series, its flawless 😍 I’m gonna eat a ton of SPAGBOL
same here ❤❤❤
Not the spagbol lol
This is the best day of my life. I first read this series when I was ten and it’s been my favorite series ever since. Never in a million years did I think they would finally make a show out of it. I am SCREAMING 🥳
This was one of my first book series as a kid. I was obsessed. I might have to reread because I forgot what happens 😭
Samee
May I also inform you that there is a sequel series? Called The Imposters, just as good, highly recommend! 😁❤
No way, no waaaaayyy! I never thought this would get adapted - it’s been so long. Probably more relevant than ever though. I hope they do the series justice 🤞
They won't, Scott westerfeld had brilliant ideas. Of course sidelined to social commentary on looks. But.... It's only going to focus on this one
Song name is My Girls by Animal Collective. My friend made me watch this trailer and I screamed when I found out one of my favorite songs was in this trailer.
Wow. I remember reading this book when I was in middle school.
Me too

Omg this such a throwback i completely forgot reading this series in middle school, never imagined it being made in 2024!
My middle school self knew that one day this book series will become a film. I just didn't know who and what network would make it. What an amazing time to be alive! This was a good series and worth the wild adventure that it was.

Besides how i imagined the characters to look, everything else looks like i imagined from the book. I never thought this would ever happen. My inner child is so happy
Honestly! Not at all how I perceived Tally to look

Ugly must mean something completely different in this film
In the book, everyone was considered "ugly" until they had the super-secret operation that turned them "pretty." So people who just looked normal were considered "ugly."

Such a fantastic and timely novel that helped define myself as a teenager and woman. I’m happy it can be shared with a new generation to show the alternatives to mass media and conformity.
Oryx and Crake next please!
I must've read this series a decade ago. I'm shocked they managed to finally adapt it.
We are finally back with adapting 2000s teen YA fiction movies. This looks perfect!
Man, takes me back to the dystopian YA craze of the 2010s. It's easy to forget just how obsessed us teens were back in the day with those films. Hunger Games, Maze Runner, Divergent... good times. I gotta admit, this film reminds me a lot of those films, kinda feels like it's from the 2010s era. Honestly, looking back, I'm surprised this series wasn't adapted during that whole craze.

Yes sirrr

A couple months ago there was an update on making another Maze Runner movie.
well is netflix they can adapt anything because they don't need movie theaters. The teen era is done because many start to flop in box office. Ugly will be safe if have enough views
Even the song is taking me back 😅 I think they're banking on nostalgia points
I read this in middle school, so happy to see a movie being made
It's finally happening!!! I've waited YEARS for this to happen!!! OMG!
While I'm not super surprised Uglies is getting an adaptation they have a hell of a job doing it well in live action (ngl the trailer doesn't give me all that much hope). Also hope they stick with it and do Pretties and Specials since the story gets really complex/nuanced in the later books
Yeah, it looks very okay, like competent, but not exactly inspiring. I'm afraid when it drops it's going to be immediately dismissed as another generic sci fi dystopia, which is a shame as the book was really interesting.
I just hope they actually get the point of the books across and not just gloss over the social commentary, and the FL character development
Yeah I wonder how they handle the other books to come… I hope it continues
I know, right? This trailer makes me think the movie is going to be a lot different from the books.
I’m really hoping they do the other two and possibly the fourth one! I loved these in the 2000s 🥺

My Girls by Animal Collective teleports me back to such a specific Tumblr-era time, that was a good call for the trailer to pull on the nostalgia heart-strings
I specifically came to the comments only to see who mentioned Animal Collective

I am SO excited for this! I read this book as an assigned reading in 8th grade, way back in 2008. Can’t believe after 16 years we’re finally get a movie for it!
Read this book when I was in highschool. Feels so long ago. This actually has me excited. Hope it's as good as the book
IVE BEEN WAITING SINCE I WAS A CHILD FOR THIS, OMGOMGOMG ITS FINALLY HAPPENING!!!!!!❤❤❤❤
I read the books so much, they were a light in a dark abusive foster home, and I dreamed of seeing the series brought to screen!!!! I hope they do a whole series of movies and if they can make Extras like a show or something!!!!! IM TOTALLY FREAKING OUT SCOTT WESTERFIELD I LOVE YOU❤
I didn’t know this was made into a movie until like a week ago… to say I’m excited is an understatement! I read this book over 10 years ago but I still can’t wait to see it!’
This is movie you watch while you're at the laundromat 😂
I remember reading this series in high school, and I've been secretly wishing for some production company to pick this up as a TV series or a movie. It's finally happening!! I just hope it's good. 😭
They're not even ugly, they're just imperfect like most people and things. Never heard of the books but it looks like it's worth watching
We're Always Going To Be Imperfect.
The Imperfects name is already taken though
“Ugly” means normal, not ugly. The “pretty” ones have extensive plastic surgery done
Its a great series.. read all the books if I didn't tbh I wouldn't be interested by this trailer and would have a bunch of questions but seriously check it out if you haven't read the books hopefully it lives up to the novels
Joey King is so it makes sense.
this is literally a dream come true.
i read the book series over and over including 'extras' and the series for 'imposters' as well, which takes place some years after 'extras'
i hope the movie is good but im also worried about the looks of pretties and especially specials.
not because of casting rly gud looking ppl but pretties also mean being symmetrical and almost unnaturally perfect.
and specials are described as horrifying and beautiful at the same time, bringing up humanity's ancient fears.
please be gud.... high expectations
this book and the whole concept of the system in the society just gives so much to think about.
for the ppl who didnt read the books.....
PLEASE GO READ THEM
one of the best book series in this world
OMGGGGG! As someone who has grown up reading these YA novels, I'm so happy to see this being adapted as a TV show! Let's goooo!

Everyone is mad about Joey King being casted as Tally but as someone who read the books, I think she’s the perfect cast. She looks just like I imagined Tally
right!? I pictured her almost exactly like this, I did picture Shay a bit different but I like her still! I am soooooo excited for this!!!
Maybe it's because she's actually too pretty because the books overexagerate but certain features on tally stand out like her asymmetry with her face but do you know in reality normal ppl don't have perfect ratio faces but it's so slight ppl miss it and still compare who's prettier? But Hollywood makes ppl appear too pretty. If they make the cast pretty as a base rule, what do pretties look like. It's all about perspective from story teller. Like hunger games, maybe Lawrence is a good actress but.... In book catnis wasn't pretty
its not because of the way she looks its because she sucks at acting
no bc shes absolutely perfect.
