Boots Riley Turns Theft Into Theory — I Love Boosters Is Set to Steal the Culture

Boots Riley is back in full provocateur mode with I Love Boosters, set to hit theaters May 22, 2026, and if the trailer is any indication, this one is about to be deliciously disruptive. Anchored by an all-star ensemble that includes Keke Palmer, Naomi Ackie, Lakeith Stanfield, Poppy Liu, Don Cheadle, and Demi Moore, the film follows a crew of professional shoplifters targeting a ruthless fashion maven in what can only be described as stylish, subversive community service.

“When cinema stops asking for permission, it stops being entertainment and starts becoming a mirror. I Love Boosters doesn’t just break rules — it rewrites who they were written for.”

Keke Palmer’s presence alone guarantees electricity, but watching veterans like Don Cheadle and Demi Moore step into Riley’s sharp, satirical universe elevates the stakes entirely. This is the kind of casting that signals intention, range, and fearless storytelling, the perfect marriage of biting social commentary and undeniable star power. Consider this your warning: I Love Boosters will be more than a movie, it’s set to become a reference in cultural currency.
