Oscar nominee Toni Collette plunge into the world of the Italian mafia in a new trailer mafia mom. In the comedy for laughs, Collette is portrayed as a typical suburban American mom with a college-hungry son and a cheating husband. However, as soon as her grandfather dies, she receives an offer from his closest adviser that she cannot refuse - to inherit the family business running the Italian mafia empire. The trailer shows how crazy she is and how dangerous it is to be associated with the mafia.

However, she is quickly introduced to his line of work when the killers disrupt his funeral. After being told that she is now the boss, she enters a sort of spiral before settling down and trying her best to run the empire. Although it’s not particularly good.

The film is expected to show how her reign proved to be an unexpected success for both her and the mob, following her as she adjusts to running an organized crime syndicate.
