Pete Davidson is the consummate large adult son in the trailer for 'King of Staten Island'
, which is set to hit on-demand services June 12th.
The new film, directed by Judd Apatow, is loosely based on Davidson’s own life: It finds him playing an unambitious 20-something named Scott with half-baked dreams about being a tattoo artist — plus, he still lives at home and spends most of his time smoking weed with his friends. He also still isn’t quite over the death of his firefighter dad 17 years prior.
The clip teases plenty of moments that capture that classic Apatow mix of humor and heart, as Scott gets dumped in an above ground pool by Ray and receives some sage wisdom from a veteran firefighter named Papa . Of course, there are the one-liners, too, like when Scott is told life is passing him by too quickly, and he replies, “Why do you think I smoke weed all the time? So I can slow it down.”writer Dave Sirus.
