Kevin Smith Shares THE 4:30 MOVIE Poster

Writer and director Kevin Smith has released the first poster of his latest film, The 4:30 Movieacquired by Saban Films.

Smith shared the following note with the poster: “Introducing the first poster for THE 4:30 MOVIE, my 16th film, coming to theaters this fall from @saban_films! Set in the summer of 1986, we shot this emotional journey of a film at @smodcastlecinemas, the theater in #atlantichighlands, New Jersey, where I grew up and now co-own with my friends.

“Created by the talented guys at @wearebond, this first poster showcases our fresh foursome of (from left) @nick_v_cirillo, @reednorthrup, @austinzajur and @sienaagudong, the incredible guys behind the photo.

“I like how the designers put the billing block at the top of the theater poster. My name above the title is a compromise I made instead of using the “A Film By” credit (which I’ve always avoided).

“We’ll be debuting the trailer at my panel in Hall H on Saturday night at @comic_con, but if you can’t make it, you can watch it online on Monday morning!

“Here’s when tickets go on sale for our world premiere – a huge benefit for #smodcastlecinemas, because you’ll be able to see the film in the same theater we shot it in (and because we’re a 501(c) nonprofit, you can deduct the cost of your tickets)! #KevinSmith #the430movie”

The film is set in the summer of 1986, “The coming-of-age comedy follows three sixteen-year-old friends (played by Austin Zajur, Nicholas Cyril AND Reed Northrup) who spend their Saturdays sneaking into local multiplex cinemas.

“But when one of the boys also invites the girl of his dreams (Siena Agudong) to see the latest comedy, each of the teenagers will learn something serious about life and love before the credits roll.”

The 4:30 Movie even the stars My Friend Ken Jeong (The Hangover), Sam Richardson (Vice president), Genesis Rodriguez (Tusk), Justin Long (Barbarian), Jason Lee (Almost famous), Rachel Draghi (I love my dad), Kate Micucci (The Big Bang Theory), Adam Pally (Sonic the Hedgehog), Harley Quinn Blacksmith (Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood), AND Man of method (Power Book II: Ghost).

Smith shot the film at his Smodcastle Cinemas in New Jersey, the same movie theater he frequented every weekend as a teenager and now co-owns. Liz Destro, Josh Bachove, and Jordan Monsanto produced alongside EPs Bill Bromiley, Shanan Becker, and Jonathan Saba.

Smith is set to embark on a multi-city national tour with the film this summer, which will then open in theaters across the country.
