Kevin Smith's 'The 4:30 Movie' Acquired by Saban Films for Summer Theatrical Release

The film, shot at the New Jersey theater Smith co-owns, marks his second collaboration with Saban following 'Jay and Silent Bob Reboot.'

Kevin Smith announces 'The 4:30 Movie,' filmed at SModcastle Cinemas in New Jersey, has been picked up by Saban Films for a summer theatrical release.
The coming-of-age comedy, set in the summer of 1986, follows three teenagers' adventures in love and life at their local movie theater.
Smith, who co-owns the theater where the film was shot, embarked on a national tour similar to his previous films, 'Jay and Silent Bob Reboot' and 'Clerks III.'
The cast includes Ken Jeong, Sam Richardson, Rachel Dratch, Adam Pally, and a mix of Smith's regular collaborators and new faces.
Smith's film is described as a personal ode to the pre-internet generation, capturing the essence of teenage romance and friendships in the 80s.
