A brand-new official trailer has been released for "Teen Spirit," the upcoming British pop-star drama that stars Elle Fanning (Maleficent, The Neon Demon).

Marking the directorial debut of "Social Network" and "The Handmaid's Tale" actor Max Minghella, the film chronicles the rise of a fictional British pop singer named Violet (Fanning), who first comes onto the scene as one of the teenage contestants on a national singing competition.

Also written by Minghella, "Teen Spirit" is featuring songs by Robyn, Katy Perry, Ariana Grande, Annie Lennox, Grimes, Major Lazer, Ellie Goulding, and Tegan & Sara, and also includes the original song "Wildflowers" produced by Grammy-winning indie rocker Jack Antonoff and performed by Fanning herself.

The film, which premiered back in September to mixed reviews at the Toronto International Film Festival, co-stars Rebecca Hall (Professor Marston and the Wonder Women), Agnieszka Grochowska (Child 44), and Zlatko Buric (the Pusher Trilogy). It's now slated for a limited theatrical release in April.

synopsis:
Violet (Elle Fanning) is a shy teenager who dreams of escaping her small town and pursuing her passion to sing. With the help of an unlikely mentor, she enters a local singing competition that will test her integrity, talent and ambition. Driven by a pop-fueled soundtrack, Teen Spirit is a visceral and stylish spin on the Cinderella story.
