Jojo Rabbit is a 2019 American comedy-drama film written and directed by Taika Waititi and was based on the Christine Leunens novel "Caging Skies". Roman Griffin Davis stars in the film as Johannes "Jojo" Betzler, a Hitler Youth member who discovers that his mother Rosie (Scarlett Johansson) is hiding a Jewish girl (Thomasin McKenzie) in their attic. He must then question his beliefs, while dealing with the intervention of his imaginary friend, a fanciful version of Adolf Hitler (portrayed by Waititi). The film's cast includes Rebel Wilson, Stephen Merchant, Alfie Allen, and Sam Rockwell.
