Prime Video released the official trailer of the mythical comedy, I’m a Virgo, starring Emmy-winning actor Jharrel Jerome (When They See Us, Moonlight). The series is created, written, and executive produced by filmmaker Boots Riley (Sorry to Bother You). Jerome also serves as an executive producer. All seven episodes of the series will be available on Prime Video on June 23.

I’m a Virgo is about Cootie (Jerome), a 13-foot-tall young black man in Oakland, California. Having grown up hidden away, passing time with comic books and TV shows, he escapes to experience the beauty and contradictions of the real world. He forms friendships, finds love, navigates awkward situations, and encounters his idol, a real-life superhero named The Hero. I’m a Virgo is a mythical odyssey that questions the purpose of the mythical odyssey.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
