First red band trailer for comedy Good Boys

March 11, 2019 by Amie Cranswick

Coinciding with its world premiere at SXSW, the first trailer has arrived for Universal Pictures’ upcoming comedy Good Boys. The film marks the feature directorial debut of Gene Stupnitsky and stars Jacob Tremblay, Keith L. Williams, and Brady Noon as three sixth graders whose day goes from bad to worse after find themselves invited to their first kissing party. Take a look at the trailer here…

Just how bad can one day get? The creative minds behind Superbad, Pineapple Express and Sausage Party take on sixth grade hard in the outrageous comedy, Good Boys.

After being invited to his first kissing party, 12-year-old Max (Room’s Jacob Tremblay) is panicking because he doesn’t know how to kiss. Eager for some pointers, Max and his best friends Thor (Brady Noon, HBO’s Boardwalk Empire) and Lucas (Keith L. Williams, Fox’s The Last Man On Earth) decide to use Max’s dad’s drone – which Max is forbidden to touch – to spy (they think) on a teenage couple making out next door.

But when things go ridiculously wrong, the drone is destroyed. Desperate to replace it before Max’s dad (Will Forte, The Last Man on Earth) gets home, the boys skip school and set off on an odyssey of epically bad decisions involving some accidentally stolen drugs, frat-house paintball, and running from both the cops and terrifying teenage girls (Life of the Party’s Molly Gordon and Ocean’s Eight’s Midori Francis).

Good Boys is set for release on August 16th and also stars Molly Gordon, Lil Rel Howery, and Will Forte.
