A new trailer and poster for Jeff Grace‘s upcoming comedy Folk Hero & Funny Guy have been posted up over at the A.V. Club. The film stars Alex Karpovsky as a struggling stand-up comic who agrees to open for his folk-singing buddy played by Wyatt Russell and the two hit the road. Meredith Hagner also stars along with a slew of cameos.
Folk Hero & Funny Guy will be in theaters and on VOD platforms May 12th.
Recently dumped by his fiancée and with a stagnating standup routine, aspiring comedian-slash-copywriter Paul (Alex Karpovsky) is stuck. The manager of the club where he performs suggests he take some time off to update his comedy material, and in waltzes his childhood friend Jason Black (Wyatt Russell), an acclaimed folk-rock musician about to embark on a solo acoustic tour of the east coast. Jason suggests Paul needs to get his mojo back—and he should start by opening for Jason on tour. They set off on the road together, picking up a new act (folk singer Bryn, played by Meredith Hagner) on the way. But when Jason reveals an ulterior motive behind the tour, rifts are exposed in their otherwise affable camaraderie. Folk Hero & Funny Guy is a music-infused spin on the road-trip buddy comedy.
