The Black Phone star Mason Thames is gearing up for a Monster Summer, a spooky family adventure from director David Henrie (“Wizards of Waverly Place”). A brand new trailer debuted today, introducing a supernatural coming-of-age story.
Monster Summer arrives in theaters on October 4, 2024.
In the film, “When a mysterious force begins to disrupt their big summer fun, Noah and his friends team up with a retired police detective to embark on a monstrous adventure to save their island.”
The new trailer below leans into the nostalgia of childhood summers with a suspenseful twist, while giving nothing away. It’s also packed with familiar faces.
Lorraine Bracco (Goodfellas, “The Sopranos”), Nora Zehetner (“The Right Stuff”), Noah Cottrell (“The Spiderwick Chronicles), Abby James Witherspoon (Secret Headquarters), Lilah Pate (“Outer Banks”), Julian Lerner (“The Wonder Years”), Patrick Renna (The Sandlot), and Mel Gibson also stars.
The spooky family adventure movie, formerly titled Boys of Summer, was written by Cornelius Uliano and Bryan Schulz (The Peanuts Movie).
“Historically, fairy tales used monsters to personify our deepest fears while empowering young people to overcome them. Now more than ever, we need narratives that inspire courage in the face of darkness. Boys of Summer is a throwback story that conjures up the magic and nostalgia of childhood as its heroes fight monsters old and new,” David Henrie previously told Deadline.
Produced by John Blanford and Dan McDonough of Pastime Pictures, Mark Fasano of Nickel City Pictures, and James Henrie of Novo Media Group.
