Billie Joe Armstrong leads an all-star cast in the candid and heartwarming “coming of middle age” comedy, ORDINARY WORLD. Perry (Armstrong), a former punk rocker, is ten years into his band’s “indefinite hiatus” and is struggling with his adjustment to the real world, which includes working in his family’s hardware store. When Perry’s hotshot attorney wife (Selma Blair) and precocious young daughter forget his 40th birthday, his brother (Chris Messina) takes pity and gives him the money to throw a huge rockstar blowout in a fancy New York hotel. At the party, Perry’s punk past clashes hilariously with his grown-up reality as he encounters crazy former bandmates, including best pal Gary (Fred Armisen), and an old-flame-turned-manager (Judy Greer), who offers him a chance to revive his stalled career, all in one outrageous day!
Written and directed by filmmaker Lee Kirk (The Giant Mechanical Man) who wrote the script based on his own experience after his first chill was born, ORDINARY WORLD stars Billie Joe Armstrong, Selma Blair, Chris Messina, Judy Greer, Kevin Corrigan, Dallas Roberts and Fred Armisen.
ORDINARY WORLD features original music by Billie Joe Armstrong and the titular track can be heard on Green Day’s upcoming alum Revolution Radio dropping October 7th.
ORDINARY WORLD is in theaters and available on Digital HD and On Demand on October 14th.
