The band co-produced the film New Years Rev, which will have its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) on September 12.

Directed by Lee Kirk, New Years Rev stars newcomers Mason Thames, Kyle Coffman and Ryan Foust as the trio’s characters head to Los Angeles under the false impression that their garage band will be opening for the “American Idiot” rockers on New Year’s Eve — except it’s a prank.

Nevertheless, naively optimistic, the young group set off on the road from Kansas to California, with wide-eyed dreams of being on stage alongside their heroes.

In an Instagram post, Green Day share their excitement for the film’s debut, calling it “a wild road trip coming-of-age” comedy.
