Ice Cube and Charlie Day play teachers preparing to battle it out on the last day of school in Warner Bros. Pictures’ comedy, Fist Fight, which just released a new trailer and poster. It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia‘s Richie Keen directs from a script by Van Robichaux and Evan Susser, with Day, Ice Cube, Toby Emmerich, Richard Brener, Samuel J. Brown, Dave Neustadter, Marty P. Ewing, Billy Rosenberg, and Bruce Berman executive producing. The cast also includes Tracy Morgan, Jillian Bell, Dean Norris, Christina Hendricks, Dennis Haysbert, and Joanna Garcia Swisher. Warner Bros Pictures, Village Roadshow Pictures, and New Line Cinema are planning a February 17, 2017 theatrical release.
The Plot: On the last day of the year, mild-mannered high school English teacher Andy Campbell (Day) is trying his best to keep it together amidst senior pranks, a dysfunctional administration and budget cuts that put jobs on the line. But things go from bad to worse when he accidentally crosses his much tougher and deeply feared colleague, Ron Strickland (Ice Cube), who challenges Campbell to an old-fashioned throw down after school. News of the fight spreads like wildfire and ends up becoming the very thing this school, and Campbell, needed.
