Up next from Rubber, Deerskin and Mandibles director Quentin Dupieux is the superhero movie spoof Smoking Causes Coughing, and Magnet has debuted the official trailer today.
Earning a rave review from cult filmmaker John Waters, Magnet Releasing will release Smoking Causes Coughing in theaters and on demand March 31, 2023.
The “wildly inventive new comedy” follows the misadventures of a team of five superheroes known as the Tobacco Force – Benzene (Gilles Lellouche), Nicotine (Anaïs Demoustier), Methanol (Vincent Lacoste), Mercury (Jean-Pascal Zadi), and Ammonia (Oulaya Amamra).
“After a devastating battle against a diabolical giant turtle, the Tobacco Force is sent on a mandatory week-long retreat to strengthen their decaying group cohesion. Their sojourn goes wonderfully well until Lézardin, Emperor of Evil, decides to annihilate planet Earth.”
John Waters raves that Smoking Causes Coughing is a “superhero movie for idiots,” as well as “one of the best movies of the year.” If it’s good enough for Waters, it’s good enough for us.
