THE KING OF STATEN ISLAND Trailer Reveals Pete Davidson’s Semi-Autobiographical Comedy

Skipping cinemas and heading straight to digital on June 12th, Judd Apatow’s bracing new comedy stars ‘Saturday Night Live’ breakout Pete Davidson as a burnout who has to learn to let go of the past and finally grow up. Check out the official trailer below.

Over his storied career, Judd Apatow has elevated a series of promising young comedy talents to their first major big-screen performance, including Steve Carell, Seth Rogen, Jonah Hill, Jason Segel, Kristen Wiig, Amy Schumer and Kumail Nanjiani.

Scott (Davidson) has been a case of arrested development ever since his firefighter father died when he was seven. He’s now reached his mid-20s having achieved little, chasing a dream of becoming a tattoo artist that seems far out of reach. As his ambitious younger sister (Maude Apatow) heads off to college, Scott is still living with his exhausted ER nurse mother (Marisa Tomei) and spends his days smoking weed, hanging with the guys—Oscar (Ricky Velez), Igor (Moises Arias) and Richie (Lou Wilson)—and secretly hooking up with his childhood friend Kelsey (Bel Powley).

But when his mother starts dating a loudmouth firefighter named Ray (Bill Burr), it sets off a chain of events that will force Scott to grapple with his grief and take his first tentative steps toward moving forward in life.

THE KING OF STATEN ISLAND is released digitally in Ireland on June 12, 2020.
