A24 releases the first trailer for “Club Kid,” the feature directorial debut of actor-filmmaker Jordan Firstman. The film follows a hard-partying New York City club promoter whose life is disrupted when he learns he has a 10-year-old son. Firstman also writes and stars in the movie, and the trailer presents a mix of comedy and heartfelt father-son dynamics.
Several outlets describe the film as generating strong early attention following its Cannes showing. Deadline reports that A24 acquires the film out of Cannes and will release it in a limited theatrical run beginning Nov. 6. Other coverage highlights the cast, including Reggie Absolom, Diego Calva, Cara Delevingne, Kirby Howell-Baptiste, and Colleen Camp, and frames the debut as a standout discovery from the festival. IndieWire emphasizes the film’s broad appeal, describing it as crowd-pleasing and emotionally grounded.
While reviews and previews differ in tone—some focusing on awards potential and others on the trailer’s humor and charm—sources consistently agree on the basic premise, Firstman’s creative role, the Cannes origin, and A24’s planned fall release.
