\n\tThe band promised that the movie is \u201cpacked with your favorite Green Day songs\u201d as well as \u201cloaded with mischief.\u201d Among the stars of the film they said is their love letter to \u201croad trip movies, \u201990s nostalgia, and chasing the dream no matter how ridiculous it gets,\u201d are Mason Thames (The Black Phone<\/em>), Mckenna Grace (Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire<\/em>), Fred Armisen (Portlandia<\/em>), Jenna Fischer (The Office<\/em>), Angela Kinsey (The Office<\/em>), comedian Bobby Lee (Reservation Dogs<\/em>) and others.<\/p>\n

\n\tAccording to a description of the movie that will get its world premiere on Sept. 12 at the Toronto International Film Festival<\/a>, \u201cA garage rock trio gets the opportunity of a lifetime to open up for Green Day and hit the road across America to make the gig. The only problem is\u2026 they didn\u2019t realize it was a prank.\u201d <\/p>\n

\n\tGreen Day \u2014\u00a0singer\/guitarist Billie Joe Armstrong, bassist Mike Dirnt and drummer Tr\u00e9 Cool \u2014\u00a0co-produced the movie that follows the travails of punk rockers The Analog Dogs, whose greatest wish in life is to meet their heroes. After finding a way to get their demo to the trio, they get what they think is a once-in-a-lifetime chance to open for Green Day at a New Year\u2019s Eve show, only to find out that they\u2019ve been punk\u2019d by one of their brothers.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cNevertheless, naively optimistic, the young trio set off on the road from Kansas to California, with wide-eyed dreams of being on stage alongside their heroes,\u201d read the description. The soundtrack features more than a dozen Green Day songs. <\/p>\n

\n\tGreen Day will continue their ongoing world tour on Wednesday (Aug. 27) with a gig at Lima, Peru\u2019s San Marcos Stadium.<\/p>\n
