Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping — Green Band Trailer

added: Sun, Mar 13th '16

For a new musical parody from Andy Samberg and his "Lonely Island" comrades, Akiva Schaffer and Jorma Taccone, pop stars like Justin Bieber and Kanye West and their overindulgent celebrity lifestyles are the source of some much-needed mockery. And you can bet you'll never see the music industry the same way again.

In the newly-released green band trailer for the cameo-packed faux documentary "Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping," which is the official "Lonely Island" movie, Samberg plays Conner4Real, a mega-popular recording artist who has surrounded himself with an entourage of yes-men, brown-nosers, and hanger-ons. But when his sophomore album shows signs of dwindling sales, the self-absorbed rapper sees his career taking a dramatic dip for the first time. And his future might be in question.

Directed by Schaffer and Taccone, both of whom are co-starring as Conner4Real's music partners, the comedy features an all-star cast that includes Sarah Silverman, Bill Hader, Imogen Poots, Joan Cusack, Tim Meadows, and James Buckley -- with cameos by Will Forte, Will Arnett, Maya Rudolph, Martin Sheen, Simon Cowell, Snoop Dogg, and a hologram of Adam Levine, just to name a few.

"Popstar" will be arriving in theaters this summer, beginning June 3rd.
