QUEEN-SIZED
By Edward J. Riley
An experimental cancer treatment causes a supermodel to increase in size.
SYNOPSIS:
When successful model and media personality Mia Diaz learns she has terminal cancer, she starts pursuing several experimental methods in order to beat it, all whilst keeping her diagnosis secret from the public. Upon learning of an experimental procedure that enables her immune system to convert cancerous cells into healthy ones, she elects to take part in the experiment, and at first, it seems that she's found a cure for cancer that she's all too happy to promote.
However, the experiment has a strange side effect - as Mia's cells continue to multiply thanks to the procedure, she starts to increase in overall size, reaching heights beyond normal human capability. Can Mia stop growing before she becomes a 50-foot monstrosity?
Inspired in part by films like The Amazing Colossal Man, The Incredible Shrinking Man and Attack of the 50-Foot Woman, Queen-Sized is a film that touches on themes of the perception of beauty, body image, and societal standards of normality.

Hi! Your logline tells me that there's a supermodel main character who gets bigger from getting experimental cancer treatment. What the logline needs to tell is whether the supermodel is the protagonist, antagonist, or person who causes an obstacle for the protagonist. Also, add what the endgame is for the protagonist and who/what the antagonist is. We need to know who is fighting for what against whom and what/who is making it difficult?

Thanks for posting! It sounds like the start of a great premise, but I feel like we're missing the "what's next" in this logline. Is there a way to add stakes at the end of this?
