NHFF Alum TJ Miller Featured in “Seeking a Friend for the End of the World” Alongside Steve Carell, and Keira Knightley in theaters June 22

Instead of an adrenaline pumping, asteroid stopping, ride of a film, Seeking a Friend for the End of the World, twists the Armageddon story line that everyone is used to and dives into normal, everyday people for their journey to the end.  From IMDb: As an asteroid nears Earth, a man finds himself alone after his wife leaves in a panic. He decides to take a road trip to reunite with his high school sweetheart. Accompanying him is a neighbor who inadvertently puts a wrench in his plan.

The trailer is moving, funny, and captivating examining the way some people would go into shock, some would refuse to believe it, some would try to keep some sense of normality, or wouldn’t have anything else to do without their jobs.  I get goose-bumps every time from the scenes of people wearing all the things they never wore, throwing parties and having yard sales,  the emotional breakdowns, riots, mass exoduses to beautiful places, and a mad rush to do all the things left undone without regard for the consequences.

TJ Miller makes an appearance as the “chipper host” in a hilarious scene, the film also stars Steve Carell opposite Keira Knightley, and hits theaters June 22.
