0Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa
Knoxville rides again!
Enough of this sad, emotional film-nerd crap, welcome to Jackass! This Fall, Johnny Knoxville is throwing on his creepy old-man makeup one more time. Bad Grandpa follows Knoxville’s destructive geriatric, Irving Zisman, and his young grandson, Billy—played by Jackson Nicoll—as they travel the U.S., wrecking property and lives along the way.
Judging from the trailer, it looks like a mashup of Jackass’s usual prank-related tomfoolery and the mildly plot-focused approach of Sacha Baron Cohen’s Borat and Bruno. Granted, I’d rather see another full-on Jackass movie, but this should do nicely.
Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa hits theaters on October 25th.
Johnny Knoxville is a national treasure. Fuck anyone who says otherwise.
