“We’re all doing our best here, sir.” IFC has debuted the main official trailer<\/a> for a super wacky dumb new stoner comedy movie titled Idiots, hitting theaters at the end of August<\/a> this summer. It’s wild! Described as a “raucous and wildly entertaining descent into madness,” this first premiered at the 2026 Sundance Film Festival under the dangerous title The Sh&theads, though has now been adjusted to the more tamer Idiots. Which is also very much an accurate description of these characters! Two unqualified bozos (starring Dave Franco & O’Shea Jackson Jr.) are hired to transfer a spoiled, rich teen named Sheridan to rehab, when their straightforward gig quickly spirals into dangerous mayhem. Along with Franco & Jackson, it also stars Mason Thames (from The Black Phone and How to Train Your Dragon) as Sheridan, Kiernan Shipka, Nicholas Braun, and Peter Dinklage. Sundance pumps it up: “Blair treats us to his signature absurdist sense of humor and douses it with gasoline and psychedelics, crafting an uncanny world where the worst intentions net the highest yields.” Definitely not for everyone \u2013 it’s so dumb it’ll piss off some viewers. But if you wanna watch these bozos get into all kinds of ridiculous trouble, then dive right in & get ready to laugh.<\/p>\n

Here’s the full official trailer (+ 3 posters) for Macon Blair’s comedy Idiots, direct from IFC’s YouTube<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Sundance<\/a>: “When two unqualified bozos are hired to transfer a rich teen to rehab, their straightforward gig quickly spirals into dangerous mayhem. Dave Franco & O’Shea Jackson Jr are perfectly (mis)matched as Mark and Davis, the fumbling circumstantial chaperones in charge of transporting the increasingly psychotic Sheridan (a brilliant Mason Thames).” Idiots, formerly known as The Sh*heads, is directed by the acclaimed American actor \/ filmmaker Macon Blair<\/a>, director of the films I Don’t Feel at Home in This World Anymore<\/a> & last year’s The Toxic Avenger<\/a> remake previously, and a few episodes of “The Lowdown”. The screenplay is written by Macon Blair; from a story by Macon Blair & Alex Orr. Produced by Brandon James, Alex Orr, Macon Blair, Dave Franco, Nathan Klingher, Ford Corbett, Jeremy Saulnier. This initially premiered at the 2026 Sundance Film Festival earlier this year (under the title The Shtheads). IFC debuts Blair’s Idiots movie in US theaters starting August 28th, 2026<\/a> at the end of this summer. Want to watch?<\/p>\n
