Underrated, underseen, ahead of its time, whatever you want to call it, Popstar was undoubtedly the last great theatrical studio comedy. When his new album fails to sell records, pop/rap superstar Conner4real goes into a major tailspin and watches his celebrity high life begin to collapse. He’ll try anything to bounce back, anything except reuniting with his old rap group The Style Boyz. Produced by Judd Apatow and directed, written and starring The Lonely Island.

“An absolute blast, with a frenetic strike-rate and songs that will worm their way into your ears for days. Like Conner, this comedy’s for real.” ~ Nick De Semlyen, Empire
