There a three B's you need to watch out for Richard Linklater's "Dazed and Confused" spiritual sequel: booze, babes, and baseball. The upcoming film, entitled "Everybody Wants Some," somewhat follows where its predecessor left off.
The new trailer for the long-awaited "Dazed and Confused" sequel finally saw its release, and it's just as spectacular. Mashable reports:
"It's the trailer for 'Everybody Wants Some,' Richard Linklater's spiritual sequel to his laid back 1993 high school classic 'Dazed and Confused.' Named after Van Halen's energetic song, the film follows college freshmen on a baseball team as they navigate the school's social circles."
While "Dazed and Confused" was about a group of high school students in the '70's, "Everybody Wants Some" is set in the '80's, which follows some "incoming college baseball recruits."
Although it's mostly about some freshmen entering the college world, you can expect some romance, too. According to Rolling Stone:
"The first clip from the film shows that Linklater hasn't lost his knack for capturing the charm of being young and dumb, dabbling once again in awkward budding romance, oddball advice from a toked-out man child, and, of course, hazing. For 'freshmen batting practice,' for instance, the new players are duct taped to the outfield wall and pelted with line drives and pop files."
Blake Jenner, known for his role as Ryder Lynn on Fox's "Glee," stars in the new film. Jenner portrays the role of Jake, "the spiritual Mitch of the squad." Blake will also star alongside Zoey Deutch, who plays his love interest, Beverly.
Ryan Guzman, Tyler Hoechlin, J. Quinton Johnson, Wyatt Russell, Glen Powell, and Will Brittain also star in the film. Written and directed by Richard Linklater, "Everybody Wants Some" will open at the SXSW Film Conference on March 11, 2016.
"Everybody Wants Some" will hit theatres in spring of 2016. Watch the trailer here.
