The battle lines are drawn in trailer for A War With Grandpa

August 13, 2020 by Amie Cranswick

A trailer, poster and images have arrived online for the upcoming comedy A War With Grandpa which stars Oakes Fegley (Pete’s Dragon) as Peter, a sixth grader who devises a series of increasingly elaborate pranks to drive out his Grandpa (Robert De Niro) who recently moved in with his family; check them out here…

Sixth-grader Peter (Oakes Fegley) is pretty much your average kid-he likes gaming, hanging with his friends and his beloved pair of Air Jordans. But when his recently widowed grandfather Ed (Robert De Niro) moves in with Peter’s family, the boy is forced to give up his most prized possession of all, his bedroom. Unwilling to let such an injustice stand, Peter devises a series of increasingly elaborate pranks to drive out the interloper, but Grandpa Ed won’t go without a fight. Soon, the friendly combatants are engaged in an all-out war with side-splitting consequences.
