You probably know Ilana Glazer from Comedy Central’s “Broad City,” which she co-created and co-starred in alongside Abbi Jacobson.

Now, she’s out with a new project for the big screen — A24’s “False Positive” — and it’s no laughing matter.

The horror film puts a contemporary spin on “Rosemary’s Baby,” shining a light on the terror of pregnancy.

From Entertainment Weekly:

We talk with Glazer about the transition from comedy to horror — and her real-life pregnancy.
