An official release date has been announced for the Green Day inspired comedy movie ‘NIMRODS’.

Set to arrive in theatres on August 14, ‘NIMRODS’ focuses on the story of three friends who journey to Los Angeles, mistakenly believing that their band is opening for Green Day on New Year’s Eve.

Following their rowdy road trip, it’s partly based on the exploits of Green Day and their years of living in a tour van prior to their breakout success in the early 90s.

The band’s members, Billie Joe Armstrong, Tre Cool and Mike Dirnt, all serve as producers on the project.

It’s being released by Inaugural Entertainment in partnership with Legion M, the world’s first fan-owned entertainment company.

On the news, Legion M co-founders Jeff Annison and Paul Scanlan have shared:

“Green Day wouldn’t exist without the fans, and we’re excited to give those fans the opportunity to own a stake in the film as we work with the incredibly talented teams at Inaugural, Live Nation and Green Day to bring it to audiences. NIMRODS is exactly the kind of film we’re built for. It’s bold, original and designed to be experienced together. When our community rallies behind something they love, it has a real impact, and we’re excited to put that to work here.”

Founder and CEO of Inaugural Entertainment Kevin Weisberg has said:

“NIMRODS is the kind of film that audiences are going to want to experience together in a theater. It captures the humor, chaos and rebellious spirit that made Green Day such a cultural force, while telling a genuinely entertaining coming-of-age story. We’re thrilled to partner with Legion M and Live Nation Studios to help bring this film to fans nationwide on August 14.”

Check out the trailer below:

Mason Thames, Kylr Coffman and Ryan Foust will star as those three friends. The cast also features ‘The Office’ stars Jenna Fischer and Angela Kinsey.

On the movie, Billie Joe has said:

“Van days rule. You will drive all night on no sleep then play a show for 10 kids in a basement of a friend of a friend’s house 50 miles east of anywhere you’ve ever heard of. But you’ll do it again the next day, and the one after that. Because you’re doing it with your bandmates who become your family and it’s unlike anything you’ve ever known. It’s electric. Let the music and mischief ensue.”
