Was the release of the international trailer for On the Road always planned for early August, or did Kristen Stewart’s recent cheating scandal compel IFC and Sundance Selects to put out a new trailer while Stewart’s in all the newspapers, TV gossip shows, and just about every entertainment website? Whatever the reason, IFC and Sundance Selects have released this new trailer, however they still haven’t confirmed a theatrical release date for the drama based on Jack Kerouac’s novel.

In addition to Stewart, On the Road features Sam Riley, Garrett Hedlund, Kirsten Dunst, Amy Adams, Tom Sturridge, and Viggo Mortensen.

The Plot:

After the death of his father, Sal Paradise, an aspiring New York writer, meets Dean Moriarty, a wild and infectiously charismatic ex-con. They hit it off immediately. Determined to avoid the pitfalls of a narrow, prescribed life, Sal hits the road, joining Dean on what evolves into a life-changing physical and emotional odyssey. Thirsting for freedom, they discover the world, the ecstasy of experience, the connectedness of humanity and ultimately themselves.
