Sofia Carson in "The Life List."
Watch Next

Sofia Carson (Carry-On) experiences a second coming-of-age in Netflix's upcoming film The Life List, based on the novel by Lori Nelson Spielman.

Carson stars as Alex, a young woman grieving the loss of her mother (Connie Britton, Zero Day). However, her mother is still with her in the form of video messages she left Alex before her death. In these messages, she asks Alex to check off items from a list of goals she wrote as a teenager, including "go all out in a mosh pit" and "do stand-up comedy." Each completed goal means Alex gets a new message from her mother's lawyer (Kyle Allen, A Haunting in Venice). What follows is a journey of risk-taking, self-discovery, and maybe even true love.

Check out the beginnings of Alex's journey in the trailer above.

The Life List hits Netflix March 28.
