Teens Can't Stop Literally Exploding In New Horror Comedy Spontaneous Trailer

The new Spontaneous movie trailer for Paramount's upcoming sci-fi horror comedy, starring Katherine Langford and Charlie Plummer, is blowing up - literally. As movie theaters across the country start to reopen with limited seating, the film industry has begun to roll out a slate of movies that wrapped production before the coronavirus pandemic hit for the fall season. Among them is Spontaneous, an uncannily-timed coming-of-age love story about high school students graduating during a pandemic that causes their peers to physically explode around them.

Both of the film's romantic leads have gained recognition in the world of young adult programming. Langford began her career in Netflix's controversial teen drama 13 Reasons Why and has since had roles in Greg Berlanti's Love, Simon and Rian Johnson's Knives Out. Plummer most recently starred in Hulu's original limited series Looking for Alaska, created by The O.C.'s Josh Schwartz and based on John Green's novel of the same name. Yvonne Orji (Insecure), Hayley Law (Riverdale), Rob Huebel (Transparent), and Piper Perabo (Cheaper by the Dozen, Looper) will star alongside Langford and Plummer.

Paramount released the Spontaneous movie trailer, which can be viewed below. The film will premiere in limited theatrical release Oct 2, and Oct. 6 on demand. The movie is rated R for "teen drug and alcohol use, language and bloody images throughout" by the Motion Picture Association of America. Brian Duffield (The Babysitter, Underwater) wrote, directed, and produced the slapstick coming-of-age film, which will be his directorial debut.
