Check out the trailer for Little Brother, an upcoming movie starring Daniel Diemer (Under The Bridge), Philip Ettinger (First Reformed), Academy Award-winner J.K. Simmons (Whiplash), and Polly Draper (Thirtysomething).

Little Brother begins after Pete (Ettinger) attempts suicide, pushing his overbearing father Warren (Simmons) to recruit his little brother Jake (Diemer) to drive Pete from Albuquerque to Seattle for a family intervention. The brothers aren’t just oil and water; they’re fire and gasoline—and they’re both crammed inside a busted-up van for 1,400 miles with nowhere to hide. As they cross the American West, the two struggle to reconcile their past and forge a new bond.

Little Brother, written and directed by Sheridan O'Donnell, releases in theaters and digital and cable VOD on September 17, 2024.
