OFF THE CUFF: POPSTAR: NEVER STOP NEVER STOPPING - 10TH ANNIVERSARY
United States, 2016: 93 minutes: 10th Anniversary
description
In celebration of the 10th Anniversary of POPSTAR: NEVER STOP NEVER STOPPING, join CUFF for an Off the CUFF screening on June 3 at Globe Cinema. When it becomes clear that his solo album is a failure, a former boy band member does everything in his power to maintain his celebrity status.
ABOUT THE FILM
After a two-year, sold-out, worldwide tour, Conner4Real (Andy Samberg) is the biggest name in music. Go behind the scenes as Conner faces a crisis of popularity after this sophomore album flops, leaving fans, sycophants and rivals all wondering what to do when Conner4Real is no longer the dopest star of all.
Produced by Judd Apatow (TRAINWRECK, SUPERBAD, KNOCKED UP) and created by The Lonely Island, the film blends pitch-perfect pop parody with the group’s signature digital-short absurdity. POPSTAR is packed with rapid-fire jokes and a deep bench of cameo appearances from major figures across comedy and music.
