'The Rocker' To Screen @ CineVegas 6/12

CineVegas' Opening Night will be presenting "The Rocker" on Thursday, June 12, 2008 at 7:30pm. The screening will take place at Palms Casino Resort West Entrance (4321 West Flamingo Road Las Vegas, NV 89103).
 
The movie stars Rainn Wilson, Emma Stone, Lonny Ross, Fred Armisen and Jane Lynch, director Peter Cattaneo and producer Tom McNulty; Festival executives Dennis Hopper (Chairman of the Creative Advisory Board), Robin Greenspun (President), Danny Greenspun, and Trevor Groth (Artistic Director); George Maloof and additional talent TBA.

In "The Rocker" Robert "Fish" Fishman is the drummer for an eighties hair band.  He's living the rock n' roll dream… until he is kicked out of the group. Twenty years later, the desperate rocker joins his nephew's band, "A.D.D.," finally reclaiming the rock-god throne he's always thought he deserved -- while taking his much younger bandmates along for the ride of their lives.
 
In this rockin' mix of physical comedy, heart and garage band/power rock/heavy metal music, "The Office's" Rainn Wilson trades his paper company desk job for rock 'n roll fame, taking on the role of a big, sweaty, out-of-control – and sometimes naked – drummer who gets a second chance at rock superstardom.  He's joined by Christina Applegate ("Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy"), Jeff Garlin ("Curb Your Enthusiasm"), Josh Gad ("21"), pop star Teddy Geiger and Emma Stone ("Superbad").  Peter Cattaneo ("The Full Monty") directs.  
 
20th Century Fox will release THE ROCKER on August 1, 2008. For more information, please visit: http://www.rockermovie.com/
