I can't think of a better way to celebrate 'Murica this Fourth of July than with the release of Netflix's America: The Motion Picture. That's right, patriots, soon it will be time to polish your truck nuts, fire up the barbeque, and pack your mortars with fireworks because we love the United States of America like super-powered historical figures causing chaos across the fruited plains.
Here's the official logline for America: The Motion Picture:
In this wildly tongue-in-cheek animated revisionist history, a chainsaw-wielding George Washington assembles a team of rabble-rousers — including beer-loving bro Sam Adams, famed scientist Thomas Edison, acclaimed horseman Paul Revere, and a very pissed off Geronimo — to defeat Benedict Arnold and King James in the American Revolution. Who will win? No one knows, but you can be sure of one thing: these are not your father's Founding… uh, Fathers.
Ready to fly their flag for Netflix's upcoming animation are Channing Tatum as George Washington, Jason Mantzoukas as Samuel Adams, Olivia Munn as Thomas Edison, Bobby Moynihan as Paul Revere, Judy Greer as Martha Washington, Will Forte as Abraham Lincoln, Raoul Max Trujillo as Geronimo, Killer Mike as Blacksmith, Simon Pegg as King James, and Andy Samberg as Benedict Arnold.
In addition to the new trailer, Netflix has dropped a set of star-spangled images of the new film:
America: The Motion Picture is directed by Matt Thompson from a script written by Dave Callaham. Producers include Phil Lord, Christopher Miller, Will Allegra, Channing Tatum, Peter Kiernan, Reid Carolin, Matt Thompson, Eric Sims, and Dave Callaham.
