Here’s the original ‘Zola’ Twitter thread that told the movie’s true story

“You wanna hear a story about how me and this bitch fell out? It’s kind of long, but it’s full of suspense.”

So begins the wild trailer for A24’s “Zola,” which dropped Wednesday to a riveted social-media audience. But that was also the start of the original Twitter thread that inspired the highly anticipated movie, out June 30. The full thread from 2015 went viral detailing the Odyssean saga of A’Ziah-Monae “Zola” King, a Detroit waitress and dancer who embarked on a mind-boggling road trip to Florida with a schemer she met just hours before.
