The post Green Day Unveil Teaser Trailer for New Years Rev Punk Rock Road Trip Film: Watch appeared first on Consequence.

Green Day have unveiled the teaser trailer for New Years Rev, their coming-of-age comedy film based on their early days as road-tested young punks. Now grab the popcorn and the guyliner!

New Years Rev sees a young and hungry punk band (played by Mason Thames, Kylr Coffman, and Ryan Foust) hit the road for California after they mistakenly believe they’ve landed the gig of a lifetime opening for Green Day’s New Year’s Eve concert in Los Angeles. What follows on their road trip out West promises to be “rowdy, mischievous, and full of adventure” as the upstarts learn the ins and outs of the true rock star life.

In the 55-second teaser (featuring Green Day’s “Holiday” as the soundtrack), we see the boys hatch their plan, run afoul of a nasty tow truck driver, play their own show seemingly at a skate park, and even catch Green Day on stage. So far it’s a little like Almost Famous meets Get Him to the Greek (without all that needless Russell Brand showing up), and this one could be a neat little celebration of the snark and spirit Green Day maintain even to this very day. Check out the teaser below.

“Van days rule,” Green Day’s Billie Joe Armstrong said in a previous statement. “You will drive all night on no sleep then play a show for 10 kids in a basement of a friend of a friend’s house 50 miles east of anywhere you’ve ever heard of. But you’ll do it again the next day, and the one after that. Because you’re doing it with your bandmates who become your family and it’s unlike anything you’ve ever known. It’s electric. Let the music and mischief ensue.”

The film, which is still without a release date, also stars The Office‘s own Jenna Fischer and Angela Kinsey as well as Bobby Lee, Fred Armisen, Sean Gunn, and Ignacio Diaz-Silverio. Fischer’s husband, Lee Kirk (Ordinary World), acts as both writer and director. Green Day also serve as executive producers (alongside what’s basically “punk rock spirit animals”).

Despite the overtly rebellious energy of this flick, it’s worth noting that the film was produced in tandem with Live Nation. The ticketing giant previously produced the 2018 Lady Gaga vehicle A Star Is Born and is also behind the forthcoming Rolling Loud, in which Owen Wilson plays a father who sneaks his 13-year-old son into the eponymous music festival.
