The official year-end trailer for A24’s latest catastrophe comedy, which stars Rachel Zegler, the Golden Globe winner, has been released. The film will now be released in theatres on December 6, 2024, after making its international premiere at the SXSW Film Festival last March.
“It’s New Year’s Eve 1999. Two high school nobodies decide to crash the last big party before the new millennium. When the clock strikes midnight, the night gets more insane than they ever could have imagined,” reads the synopsis.
