Kew Media Group is pleased to announce the release of the hilarious teen comedy, and debut feature produced by Glass Entertainment Group, from break-out co-writers, producers and directors, Zach FOX and Omri Dorani, starring Zach FOX (Unbuttoned with Zach Fox, Just Kidding) Kate Flannery (The Office), Chris Kattan (Saturday Night Live), and David Koechner (Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy and The Goldbergs) which will be available in North America, the UK and Ireland on major VOD platforms from August 13th 2018.
Zach and Ben are two nerdy childhood best friends with a dream to go to Comic-Con. They spend their days engrossed in the adventures of superheroes and villains. They may not have a lot of friends, but they have each other. And what's more, they have their ticket to Comic-Con: a near-complete original comic book written and illustrated entirely on their own. However, their Comic-Con plans are put on hold when Ben is forced to move with his dad to Antarctica. The two part ways, vowing that when Ben returns they will finish their comic book, make it to Comic-Con and make their dreams come true.
As Zach braves school without his best friend by his side, his interests shift from superheroes to supermodels. He is obsessed with girls and getting into the coolest parties. But what hasn't changed? Zach's geeky exterior. However, after five years of total isolation and extreme puberty, Ben returns as the same geek now trapped inside the body of an underwear model. With his new 'golden ticket', Zach uses Ben to do what was once thought impossible: get girls.
"The entire film-making process was a blast and we hope the audience thinks the movie is as funny as we do. But I have to add, working with college kids was a first. It isn't often that a director has to walk off the set to finish an overdue homework assignment." Said Executive Producer, Nancy Glass from Glass Entertainment Group.
"It's been a while since an edgy teen comedy like this has come out. There's a whole new generation waiting for their own Superbad and we want to be the ones to give it to them.", explained lead actor / co-director and co-writer, Zach Fox.
"This is a movie for millennials made by millennials. We understood (from our own experiences) that all teenagers think about is hooking up and climbing the social ladder, but we wanted to go further and explore how all of the social, developmental and technological nuances of the 21st century impact that high school experience. That's what drives the narrative and influences the arc of Zach's character.", stated co-director and co-writer, Omri Dorani.
