Tribeca Films Unveils Trailer for ‘The Premiere’ Mockumentary Musical

It blends cringe-driven mockumentary comedy with a biting Hamptons satire ahead of its VOD launch on August 19.

Overview

  • The trailer released on August 7 follows a narcissistic theater producer’s attempt to adapt the horror classic Scream into a stage musical.
  • Christopher Bouckoms and Sam Pezzullo make their feature debut as co-writers, directors and producers of the mockumentary.
  • Sam Pezzullo stars as himself with a supporting cast that includes Christina Brown, Alan Ceppos, Kristen Curcie, Timothy Dougherty and Jenni Ruiza.
  • The production relies on improvisational performances and features real Hamptons locals to heighten its cringe comedy and satirical edge.
  • After debuting on the 2024 festival circuit, Tribeca Films is moving the film into a direct-to-VOD release.
