Zita the Spacegirl (film)/Transcript

Transcript of the 2024 film Zita the Spacegirl.

Part 1
(The Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, New Eden Pictures, and Chernin Entertainment logos play.)

(Fade to drawn-like sequences recapping the Zita the Spacegirl book series.)

Narrator: It all began when a girl and her friend encountered a meteoroid. But this was no ordinary meteor. It had a button that opened gateway to another world. A world so far that no one, and I mean no one, not even SpaceX themselves, have ever discovered before. But as time went on, this girl knew that she couldn't let everyone she knew and loved dead from lethal forces. So using her skills to the test, she saved countless lives, made new friends, and was even wanted by the police force. And who was this girl's name, you ask? Her name... was Zita. Zita the Spacegirl.

(Show the title. Then fade to a town, as the song "You Make My Dreams" plays.)

Narrator: Now that Zita's adventures are over (at least for now), let's see what she's up to, shall we?

(The camera shows Zita walking down a sidewalk.)

Florist: Hey, Zita, why don't you help me out with the cat here? She doesn't want to move!

Zita: (laughed) I'm pretty sure you've got it under control, Mr. Franz.

Florist: Ha-ha, very funny.

(Zita stopped at an intersection. She saw an old lady with a walker. Feeling sympathetic, she held onto her.)

Zita: Hi, miss. Why don't I help you across?

Old lady: Really? Oh, I appreciate it.

(Zita helped the lady cross the street, with cars stopping to let them pass.)

Driver: Hey, kid, hurry it up! I got places to be!

Zita: Can it, bonehead! Show some respect.

Driver: Whatever.

(Zita and the old lady make it to the other side of the road.)

Old lady: Thank you, kind lady. Here, why don't I give you this as a token for my gratitude?

(The lady gives Zita five dollars.)

Zita: Whoa! Thanks, miss. You have no idea how grateful I am to-

(The lady was gone.)

Zita: ...receive this gift. Oh well.

(Zita walks away to her house. The song fades out.)

Zita: Hey, mom. Hi, dad.

Zita's father: Hey there, princess!

Zita: Dad, please don't call me that.

Zita's mother: He's just fooling around, sweetie. So how's your day?

Zita: Pretty fine. I helped a lady cross the street. She gave me five dollars.

Zita's mother: Oh, did you? That's very sweet.

(The doorbell rang.)

Zita: I got it!

(Zita opened the door. Her friend Joseph was standing there.)

Zita: Oh! Hey, Joseph.

Joseph: Hi, Zita.

Zita: What are you doing here?

Joseph: Nothin'. Just wanted to stop by to say hi.

Zita: Well, come in. You wanna stay over for a while?

Joseph: Ehhh, I don't know, Zita. My parents want me back home soon.

Zita: Then just ask. I'm sure they'll understand.

Joseph: You sure? What if they say no?

Zita: Like I said, they'll understand.

Joseph: Alright. If you say so.

(Joseph took out his iPhone and texted: "Is it okay if I stay over at Zita's for a little while?")

Joseph: There. Now, the moment of truth...
