Meryl Streep , James Corden and Nicole Kidman go to bat for LGBTQ rights in Americas heartland in the stage-to-screen adaptation of The Prom.

Netflix released the first photos from The Prom Wednesday while announcing the movie musicals Dec. 11 premiere. Directed and produced by Ryan Murphy , the film stars Streep as Dee Dee Allen, a vainglorious Broadway star whose career has been inching toward irrelevance.

After her latest show is scorched by critics, Dee Dee heads to Indiana with three out-of-work performers (Corden, Kidman and Andrew Rannells ) to rally on behalf of a lesbian teen, Emma (Jo Ellen Pellman ), who has been barred from taking her girlfriend, Alyssa (Ariana DeBose ), to her high school prom.
