Secret Headquarters, Owen Wilson, Paramount+

Wow! If I were assembling a team of superheroes to combat the forces of evil, I would want Owen Wilson on my side. I think he’s the kind of guy who could dish it out when push comes to shove. The good news is that we’re about to find out because Wilson is starring in the upcoming family superhero film Secret Headquarters on Paramount+.

Produced by Paramount Pictures and Jerry Bruckheimer Films, the heartwarming and action-packed family superhero film also stars Walker Scobell (The Adam Project), Jesse Williams (Grey’s Anatomy), Keith L. Williams (Good Boys), Momona Tamada (The Baby-Sitters Club), Abby James Witherspoon (Hot Pursuit) and Michael Peña (NARCOS: Mexico).

Here’s the official logline for Secret Headquarters:

While hanging out after school, Charlie and his friends discover the Headquarters of the world’s most powerful superhero hidden beneath his home. When villains attack, they must team up to defend the Headquarters and save the world.

Secret Headquarters is directed by Henry Joost and Ariel Schulman, with a story by Christopher Yost and screenplay by Christopher Yost and Josh Koenigsberg & Henry Joost & Ariel Schulman. The film is produced by Jerry Bruckheimer and Chad Oman and executive-produced by Orlee-Rose Strauss and Scott Lumpkin.

“We have seen tremendous success with our high-quality kids and family content, and are excited to add this special superhero movie to our growing slate of Paramount+ original films,” said Tanya Giles, chief programming officer, Paramount Streaming. 

Secret Headquarters is the perfect action-packed summer film for the whole family, making it a perfect fit for Paramount+ and our mountain of entertainment geared toward the whole household.”
