The first teaser trailer for Ricky Gervais’s David Brent: Life on the Road has arrived and it’s good to see his inappropriate behaviour is still firmly in place.
Written, directed by and starring Ricky Gervais as his much-loved, genre-defining creation, the film catches up with David Brent to see just what everybody’s favourite ‘chilled-out entertainer’ is up to now.
DAVID BRENT: LIFE ON THE ROAD sees the highly anticipated big screen debut of one of comedy’s best-loved characters, David Brent (Ricky Gervais). The film catches up with Brent twelve years on from the BBC mockumentary ‘The Office’ to find he is now a travelling salesman with Lavichem, a cleaning and ladies’ personal hygiene products company. However, he hasn’t given up on his dream of rock stardom and is about to embark on a self-financed UK tour with his band, ‘Foregone Conclusion’.
Assembling a group of session musicians who are just in it for the money, and talented rapper Dom (Ben Bailey Smith) in an attempt to gain street cred, Brent cashes in his pensions and takes unpaid leave in a bid to turn his dream into reality. Get ready to join David Brent on the road as he takes one last shot at fame and fortune.
DAVID BRENT: LIFE ON THE ROAD, will be in cinemas from 19th August 2016.
