With the US release just around the corner for Jason Reitman’s next directorial venture, Young Adult, working once more with his Juno scribe Diablo Cody, we’ve seen some terrific things from the film in the past few weeks and months.
We got our first official look at the film’s lead, Charlize Theron, back in August, and it was excellent, and most recently the first UK trailer for the film at the start of the month, and you can catch up with everything else in between right here.
Yahoo Movies have now put out a great new clip, entitled ‘I Wrote The Book’, in which Theron realises that the books she’s written aren’t selling as well as they used to, and have landed in the clearance section.
“A writer (Theron) of teen literature returns to her small hometown to relive her glory days and attempt to reclaim her happily married high school sweetheart (Patrick Wilson). However, when returning home proves more difficult than she thought, Mavis forms an unusual bond with a former classmate (Patton Oswalt) who hasn’t quite gotten over high school, either.”
Young Adult has just had its limited release this past weekend in the States, before going wide this coming Friday, but we’ve got a little while longer to wait until we see it here in the UK, with its release scheduled for 10th February in the new year. It definitely looks like it’s going to be worth the wait though, and until then, here’s the great new clip to tie you over. Reitman’s career has been pitch-perfect to date, and he looks to be bringing us a terrific film once more.
