The perfect comedy for her and for him! In cinemas from 28 January. That is when “8 Things”, the follow-up to the comedy hit with an all-star cast, debuts on the big screen. The film stars Alicja Bachleda Curuś, Mikołaj Roznerski, Zbigniew Zamachowski, Maciej Zakościelny, Piotr Głowacki, Leszek Lichota and Karolina Bruchnicka. Today we present the trailer and poster.
THE STORY
Five years older, but not necessarily more mature, the guys swing back into action!
The power of friendship, moments of emotion and the wild adventures of characters audiences adore. How have their lives turned out? What came after the proverbial “happily ever after”? In the next instalment of the comedy about male “weaknesses”, Ricky battles a creative crisis, Jarosław struggles with panic attacks, Filip goes wild on the stock market, Stefan tries to keep his anger in check, and Kordian tries to mend a broken heart. Only Tomek, the last of the friends, still boldly pursues his dreams. And it finally lands him in trouble. Alongside Basia and Zosia, familiar from the previous film, a brand-new heroine – the mysterious Pestka – gets swept into the whirlwind of the guys’ escapades.
The film’s title is not to be taken literally, because this is not a story about guys alone, but also about their women. More broadly, it is about the place of the modern man in today’s world. About the women who surround us – strong women who point the way. But we guys are built so that once you show us the way, we charge ahead like a locomotive; we simply need that little spur – says Mikołaj Roznerski.
THE HIT’S FOLLOW-UP WITH AN ALL-STAR CAST
After the enormous success of the first film – “7 rzeczy, których nie wiecie o facetach” – Alicja Bachleda Curuś, Mikołaj Roznerski, Zbigniew Zamachowski, Maciej Zakościelny, Piotr Głowacki and Leszek Lichota reunited on set. They were joined by Karolina Bruchnicka, Katarzyna Skrzynecka and Joanna Jarmołowicz.
The first film in the series, “7 rzeczy, których nie wiecie o facetach”, was seen by 1.1 million cinemagoers, and by 3.2 million during its first television broadcast. The production also reigned on VOD services and streaming platforms in Poland.
“8 Things” was directed by Sylwester Jakimow. The screenplay was written by Alina Puchała, Adam Musielski and others. The comedy is an MTL Maxfilm production. The film was co-financed by the Polish Film Institute.
The film hits cinema screens on 28 January.
