The first official trailer for Nimrods has arrived, giving audiences a fun and energetic glimpse into a coming-of-age road trip adventure inspired by the early touring days of legendary punk rock band Green Day. Previously titled New Years Rev, the film is written and directed by Lee Kirk and is set to hit theaters on August 14, 2026.
Nimrods follows three best friends and aspiring musicians who believe their band has landed the ultimate gig — opening for Green Day at a massive New Year's Eve concert in Los Angeles. Fueled by excitement and dreams of rock stardom, the trio embarks on a cross-country journey from Kansas to California. What they don't realize, however, is that the opportunity is actually the result of a prank, setting the stage for a hilarious and unforgettable adventure.
The film stars Mason Thames, Kylr Coffman, and Ryan Foust as the young bandmates, while a strong supporting cast includes Ignacio Diaz-Silverio, Keen Ruffalo, Jenna Fischer, Angela Kinsey, Mckenna Grace, Fred Armisen, Bobby Lee, and Sean Gunn. The trailer teases plenty of chaos, friendship, music, and misadventures as the group navigates their way toward what they hope will be the biggest moment of their lives.
According to the film's official synopsis, the story draws inspiration from Green Day's real-life experiences traveling in a tour van before becoming global rock icons. The movie centers on the fictional band The Analog Dogs, whose admiration for Billie Joe Armstrong, Mike Dirnt, and Tré Cool pushes them into a wild journey filled with optimism, determination, and plenty of unexpected surprises.
With its mix of heartfelt friendship, rock-and-roll nostalgia, and laugh-out-loud moments, Nimrods looks poised to be a crowd-pleasing adventure for music fans and coming-of-age movie lovers alike. The newly released trailer promises an entertaining ride packed with youthful ambition, road trip chaos, and a celebration of chasing dreams no matter how impossible they may seem.
