Because honestly, the Mean Girls, Bridesmaids and Bad Moms are turning 50… and so is Sadie.

We’re celebrating every aunt by birth, by marriage, and by choice—the women who make us laugh, keep us going, and remind us that we’re never alone.

Thank you for joining us during our first week of Aunt Sadie. We can’t wait to share the rest of this journey with you.

🎬 Follow @AuntSadieFilm for more behind-the-scenes moments, laughs, and updates as we bring Aunt Sadie to life.

If this reel made you laugh, send it to your favorite aunt (or the friend who’s living through those flashy sweats right along with you)!

Because honestly…
…the Mean Girls, Bridesmaids and Bad Moms are turning 50… and so is Sadie.

🎬 Aunt Sadie is a new comedy feature film celebrating the funny, messy, resilient women who hold families together…even when life (and hormones!) have other plans.

Where are all my 1st daughters? 🙋‍♀️ Sometimes being the oldest daughter means…

You’ve always been the family organizer.
The peacekeeper.
The chauffeur.
The tech support.
The therapist.
The housekeeper.
The declutter expert.
The mind reader 🔮
(*I COULD GO ON…)

…and somehow it’s still your fault when Dad “can’t hear you.” 😅

If this one made you laugh (or sigh), you’re definitely not alone.

Because honestly…
…the Mean Girls, Bridesmaids and Bad Moms are turning 50… and so is Sadie. 🥂

Aunt Sadie is a comedy about the women who somehow keep showing up for everyone else, even when it would be easier to go get a margarita instead 🍹

💛 Tag the family member who’ll appreciate this one.

Okay… it’s time to AUNTIE UP!
So let’s settle this once and for all. 😄
Which Aunt Sadie are YOU?

💥 The Chaos Sadie 🫠

📼 The Vintage Sadie ✌️

❤️ The Helper Sadie 🙋‍♀️

⭐ The Main Character Sadie 😎

🙋‍♀️ The ___________ Sadie 🤔

There’s no wrong answer…

(Although we’re pretty sure every family has at least one of each. 😉)

Today’s pick comes from our wonderful director, Danielle Beckmann 🎬✨

“I’m going with Main Character Aunt vibes today because when I’m around my nieces and nephews, I love spoiling them, giving them all my attention, and making them laugh as much as possible. And although I’m surviving, I’m also working on THRIVING. Shall we all try that? 💛”

~ Danielle Beckmann, Director 🎬✨

I’m Gaby Santinelli, writer/producer of @AuntSadieFilm, and one of my favorite parts of creating this movie has been realizing that every aunt brings something unique to the family.

And honestly?
The world needs every single one of them.

Because…
The Mean Girls, Bridesmaids and Bad Moms are turning 50… and so is Sadie. 🥂

🎬 Behind the Movie

This is just the beginning. Danielle and I will be expanding “Which Aunt Sadie Are You?” into something much bigger as we get closer to the film’s release.

We’d 💗 to know which Sadie YOU are!

Let’s be honest… the kids’ table usually has the most enlightening chit-chat anyway. 😂

Every family has one…
The aunt who plays games with the kids.
Sneaks them an extra cookie.
Isn’t afraid to look goofy to get a laugh.

That’s definitely Sadie.

Hi! I’m Gaby Santinelli, writer and producer of @AuntSadieFilm.

Aunt Sadie is a comedy celebrating the women who keep showing up for everyone else, even when life hasn’t gone quite according to plan.

Because…

The Mean Girls, Bridesmaids and Bad Moms are turning 50… and so is Sadie. 🥂

🎬 Behind the Movie:
One of my favorite parts of writing Sadie was discovering that she doesn’t need to be the center of attention to become the heart of the room. That’s where the best comedy reveals our humanity to us.

If you’ve got an aunt who made family gatherings more fun growing up, tag her below. We’d love to celebrate her.
