Inaugural Entertainment has released the official trailer for its coming of age comedy Nimrods which is inspired by the punk rock band Green Day’s early days and music. Watch the trailer below…
Nimrods follows a group of young adults who mistakenly believe their band has been chosen to open for Green Day, beginning a road trip that will change his and his friends lives. Among the cast will be Green Day members Billie Joe Armstrong, Mike Dirnt and Tre Cool making appearances as themselves in the film.
When Tommy receives a phone call inviting his band to open for Green Day on New Years Eve, he doesn’t realize it’s an elaborate prank by his older brother, Wayne. Desperate to believe his life is about to change, Tommy steals Wayne’s car and begins driving his band from Kansas City to Los Angeles, hell bent on getting there in three days. What follows is a rowdy and uproarious road trip across America, inspired by Green Day’s early days of touring in a van, years before the release of their breakout record Dookie.
Nimrods is directed and written by Lee Kirk (Ordinary World). Featuring in the film are Mason Thames, Kylr Coffman, Ryan Foust, Mckenna Grace, Sean Gunn, Fred Armisen, Ignacio Diaz-Silverio, Keen Ruffalo, Jenna Fischer, Angela Kinsey, Bobby Lee and Green Day members Billie Joe Armstrong, Mike Dirnt and Tre Cool. Armstrong, Dirnt and Cool are producing alongside Tim Perell of Process, Ryan Kroft and Michael Rapino of Live Nation Studios and Jonathan Daniel.
Nimrods will release on August 14th 2026.
