The opening night of this year’s LFF wasn’t the only party in London town last night. Taking place just a few hundred yards away from the glittering lights of Leicester Square, at the Odeon in Covent Garden, was a special screening of Paranmount’s upcoming JACKASS PRSENTS BAD GRANDPA. Director Jeff Tremaine and stars Jackson Nicoll and Johnny Knoxville, all turned up at the event after jetting across from Amsterdam where the film’s tour started eariler on in the week.
86 year-old Irving Zisman is on a journey across America with the most unlikely companion, his 8 year-old Grandson Billy in “Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa”. This October, the signature Jackass character Irving Zisman (Johnny Knoxville) and Billy (Jackson Nicholl) will take movie audiences along for the most insane hidden camera road trip ever captured on camera.
Along the way Irving will introduce the young and impressionable Billy to people, places and situations that give new meaning to the term childrearing. The duo will encounter male strippers, disgruntled child beauty pageant contestants (and their equally disgruntled mothers), funeral home mourners, biker bar patrons and a whole lot of unsuspecting citizens.
Accompanying the stars up the carpet were around a dozen ‘grandpas’ being pushed by models in supermarket shopping trolleys. Of course.
Check out our gallery, and a little video from the event below.
BAD GRANDPA opens in the UK on the 23rd of October and in the US on 25th October.
