The budding actor stars in the rock ‘n’ roll comedy about an ’80s hair metal band called CougarSnake as they make an unexpected comeback
The trailer kicks off with McKaley Millier’s teen character Alex Rockbottom explaining that the film is ‘a story about a band called CougarSnake.’
While the band are seen fighting with each other, she adds: ‘This was the moment that CougarSnake went from top of the world to rock bottom’.
Time skips ahead to 35 years later and a young music superstar Bryce Cooper, played by Brandon Butler, reveals that the long-forgotten band are his biggest inspiration.
This news delights Alex and her best friend, Teala Dunn, because her father Jesse Rockbottom, played by Tom Everett Scott, was a member of the group.
The band decide to reunite to perform as the opening act for Bryce’s forthcoming charity concert – however, they are missing a lead singer.
Following a series of disheartening auditions, Alex is thrilled to discover that pizza delivery boy Justin has an incredible voice.
When asked to sing, Justin explains: ‘No, I don’t sing in front of people.’
The trailer takes a comical turn as Justin is seen singing with the band at an old person’s home, only to be smacked on the head by an old woman using her walking stick.

He is then attacked by an older gentleman with his walking stick as one man tells a horrified Alex: ‘This is one great rock show’.
As the band continues to try and recreate their old magic, Tom admits: ‘To be honest, I don’t think I ever really had what it took to be a rock star’.
To which his daughter replies: ‘Maybe it just wasn’t your time then. Maybe it’s your time now.
Set to premiere on Prime Video on March 28, the film was directed by SFX makeup guru Todd Tucker, who co-wrote the film with Greg Zekowski.
The official tagline reads: ‘A 2nd chance at Rock-n-Roll’.
Jake is the third of four kids for Jon Bon Jovi and his high school sweetheart, Dorothea Hurley.
On top of being a world famous musician, Jake’s father also dabbled in acting after making several appearances in hit shows and films such as Ally McBeal during the 1990s and 2000s.
Jake will next showcase his acting chops in the upcoming college comedy, Sweethearts, alongside Kiernan Shipka.
