Based on the best-selling Nick Hornby (“High Fidelity,” “An Education”) novel comes the series “About a Boy,” a different kind of coming-of-age story.

Will Freeman (David Walton, “Bent,” “Perfect Couples”) lives a charmed existence. After writing a hit song, he was granted a life of free time, free love and freedom from financial woes.

He’s single, unemployed and loving it. So imagine his surprise when Fiona (Minnie Driver, “Good Will Hunting,” “Grosse Pointe Blank”), a needy single mom and her oddly charming 11-year-old son, Marcus (Benjamin Stockham, “1600 Penn”), move in next door and disrupt his perfect world.

When Marcus begins dropping by his home unannounced, Will’s not so sure about being a kid’s new best friend, until, of course, Will discovers that women find single dads irresistible. That changes everything and a deal is struck: Marcus will pretend to be Will’s son and, in return, Marcus is allowed to chill at Will’s house, play ping-pong and gorge on steaks, something his very vegan mom would never allow.

Open now in theatres everywhere, The LEGO® Movie is a 3D animated film which follows lead character, Emmet (voice by: Chris Pratt), a completely ordinary & rules-following, LEGO minifigure. who is mistakenly identified as the most "extraordinary person" and the key to saving the Lego universe.

An ordinary guy, Emmet is mistaken as being the "Master Builder" or the 'ONE' who can save the universe. Drafted into a fellowship of strangers on an epic quest to stop an evil tyrant, a journey for which Emmet is hopelessly and hilariously underprepared, Emmet teams up with old mystic Vitruvius (Morgan Freeman), a tough young lady named Lucy (Elizabeth Banks), and Batman (Will Arnett), to defeat the evil tyrant Lord Business (Will Ferrell) who is bent on destroying their universe by gluing it all together permanently.

Despite the fact that the film is just now opening in theatres, Warner Bros. is so confident in The LEGO® Movie that the studio is already considering making a sequel. (That's, of course, if this new animated feature takes-off as anticipated.) However, judging from popular interest on social media, things are looking really good for Emmet and his co-hearts in Legoland or “Bricksburg” as the imaginary city is called in this new movie.

The LEGO® Movie is the first-ever, full-length theatrical LEGO® adventure. It is directed by Phil Lord & Christopher Miller.

Check out the trailer here on ComedyE.com. Warner Bros. has just released it and some of film's stars speak about the making of the movie, as well as the process of lending their voices and faces to the creators of The LEGO® Movie.
