Disney Hosts “BRATS” World Premiere At The Tribeca Festival
On Friday evening, Disney’s ABC News Studios held the world premiere for the new documentary, “BRATS” at the OKX Theater at BMCC TPAC in New York City as part of the Tribeca Film Festival.
This new feature-length documentary looks at the iconic films of the 1980s that shaped a generation and the narrative that took hold when their young stars were branded the “Brat Pack.” The documentary explores the cultural phenomenon of films such as “St. Elmo’s Fire” and “The Breakfast Club” that tapped into teenage angst and connected with young audiences in a way that had never been done before. The films earned a cult-like following but the “Brat Pack” label would impact the young actors’ careers in unexpected ways for decades to come. Director and Brat-Packer Andrew McCarthy, who rose to stardom in such films as “Pretty in Pink,” “St. Elmo’s Fire” and “Less Than Zero” and wrote the New York Times bestselling memoir “Brat: An ‘80s Story,” goes right to the source, reuniting with his fellow Brat-Packers — friends, colleagues and former foes, many of whom he had not seen for over 30 years — to answer the question: What did it mean to be part of the Brat Pack?
Attending the event was the film’s director Andrew McCarthy, who was joined by Demi Moore, Ally Sheedy, Jon Cryer, along with many of the other members of the film’s team.
Here are some photos from the world premiere:
“BRATS” is going to be released on Hulu and Hulu On Disney+ in the United States on June 13th 2023. The film will also be released on Disney+ in Canada on Friday 28th June 2024.
