It is 1987 and Jenna (Jennifer Garner) is a 13-year-old girl who thinks adulthood is just not arriving fast enough. She's suffocated by her dorky parents, ignored by the hip kids in school and the cute guy she has a crush on barely knows her name. No longer content to spend time only with her best friend and neighbor, Matt Flamhaff, Jenna invites the cool kids to her 13th birthday party and is humiliated when she's locked in the closet for a game of “Seven Minutes in Heaven” and everyone deserts her.
Alone in the closet, Jenna makes an earnest wish. If only she could be all grown up, she'd have the life she's always wanted. Miraculously, her wish comes true.
13 Going on 30 is from Revolution Studios and a A Roth/Arnold Production, A Gina Matthews Production and a Columbia Pictures release starring Jennifer Garner, Mark Ruffalo, Judy Greer, Andy Serkis and Kathy Baker. The film is directed by Gary Winick from a screenplay by Cathy Yuspa & Josh Goldsmith and Niels Mueller.
