A24 is showing off the first trailer and poster for the coming of age film The Spectacular Now directed by James Ponsoldt (Smashed) from a script by the 500 Days of Summer screenwriting team of Scott Neustadter and Michael H. Weber. Opening in theaters on August 2, 2013, The Spectacular Now earned stars Miles Teller and Shailene Woodley (soon to be seen starring in Divergent) the Special Jury Prize, Dramatic at the 2013 Sundance Film Festival.
The cast also includes Brie Larson, Kyle Chandler, Jennifer Jason Leigh, and Mary Elizabeth Winstead.
The Plot:
This is the tale of Sutter Keely (Teller), a high school senior and effortless charmer, and of how he unexpectedly falls in love with “the good girl” Aimee Finecky (Woodley). What starts as an unlikely romance becomes a sharp-eyed, straight-up snapshot of the heady confusion and haunting passion of youth – one that doesn’t look for tidy truths.
