Casey Affleck is Dreamin’ Wild in trailer for music biopic

July 4, 2023 by Amie Cranswick

Ahead of its theatrical release this August, a trailer and images have arrived online for Dreamin’ Wild, the biographical drama from writer-director Bill Pohlad.

The film tells the story of siblings Donnie and Joe Emmerson (Casey Affleck and Walton Goggins), as the album they recorded together as teens is suddenly plucked from obscurity by a record collector almost 30 years later and hailed as a lost masterpiece by music critics. Watch the trailer below…

 

Dreamin’ Wild, the true story of love and redemption, is about what happened to singer/songwriter Donnie Emerson and his family when the album he and his brother recorded as teens was rediscovered after thirty years of obscurity and was suddenly hailed by music critics as a lost masterpiece. While the album’s rediscovery brings hopes of second chances, it also brings long-buried emotions as Donnie, his wife Nancy, brother Joe, and father Don Sr. come to terms with the past and their newly found fame.

Featuring in the cast of Dreamin’ Wild are Casey Affleck, Zooey Deschanel, Walton Goggins, Chris Messina, Jack Dylan Grazer and Beau Bridges.

Dreamin’ Wild arrives in cinemas on August 4th.
