In JOJO RABBIT, writer director Taika Waititi, brings his signature style of humor and pathos to a World War II satire. The story follows an awkward young German boy (Roman Griffin) raised by a single mother (Scarlett Johansson), and whose only ally is his imaginary friend Hitler (Taika Waititi). His naïve patriotism is tested when he meets a young girl (Thomasin Harcourt McKenzie) who upends his world views, forcing him to face his biggest fears.

Jojo Rabbit is set for release on October 18th.
