Bandslam is a musical-romantic comedy film produced by Walden Media and Summit Entertainment, the film is centered around very different teenagers, all with a shared love of music. This film was previously titled Will and Rock On. It stars Gaelan Connell, Lisa Kudrow, Alyson Michalka and Vanessa Hudgens.
Will Burton (Gaelan Connell) is used to being bullied or completely ignored by his schoolmates, so when cool and popular former cheerleader Charlotte Barnes (Alyson Michalka) starts inviting him to spend time with her, the teenager is stunned — as is his single mom Karen (Lisa Kudrow). Impressed by his eclectic knowledge of music, Charlotte, a gifted singer-songwriter, asks Will to manage her rock/ska band. Her goal is to take revenge on her egocentric musician ex-boyfriend Ben Wheatley (Scott Porter) at a regional battle of the bands.
Unsure of what he's getting himself into, Will agrees to help Charlotte's band, including Bug (Charlie Saxton) and Omar (Tim Jo), eventually expanding it with a crew of like-minded outcasts. Against all odds, the group's sound starts to come together and their prospects for success look bright. Even more surprising, Will starts losing his "loser-status", up to the point there is a potential romance brewing with Sam (Vanessa Hudgens), a classmate with untapped musical talents.
Bandslam is due for release in the USA on August 14th, 2009. The Australian release date is August 13th. See the trailer below:
