CBS Films’ The Kings of Summer debuted at the 2013 Sundance Film Festival, earning early buzz as one of the best coming of age films to come along in years. Movie fans have to wait until May 31, 2013 to determine if that label is in fact true, but the studio is showing off a new trailer as well as a behind-the-scenes featurette for the upcoming May release to help stir up the interest.
 
The Kings of Summer was directed by Jordan Vogt-Roberts and stars Nick Robinson, Gabriel Basso, Moises Arias, Nick Offerman, Megan Mullally and Alison Brie.
 
The Plot:
 
Premiering to rave reviews at the 2013 Sundance Film Festival, The Kings of Summer is a unique coming-of-age comedy about three teenage friends – Joe (Nick Robinson), Patrick (Gabriel Basso) and the eccentric and unpredictable Biaggio (Moises Arias) – who, in the ultimate act of independence, decide to spend their summer building a house in the woods and living off the land. Free from their parents’ rules, their idyllic summer quickly becomes a test of friendship as each boy learns to appreciate the fact that family – whether it is the one you’re born into or the one you create – is something you can’t run away from.
