Stay tuned for further Senior Moment updates as they become available.
#SENIOR MOMENT RELEASE DATE DRIVERS#
After speeding around town in his vintage convertible hot rod with his best friend in tow, he gets caught in a major crackdown to get dangerous senior drivers off the road, resulting in his car being impounded and his license revoked.īecause this synopsis seems to contain neither romance nor comedy, we have no choice but to assume that both elements will be revealed at a later date, perhaps in the first trailer, or via a future casting announcement.Īll snarkery aside, it's been quite some time since we saw Shatner headline a movie, and we're looking forward to seeing what that looks like in the year 2017 (or 2018, if that's when it gets released you know what we mean). Shatner plays a retired Top Gun Navy pilot who tested aircraft for NASA. Historically, Shatner hasn’t been the type to play characters this self-deprecating, but, given his apparent knack for it, here’s hoping this won’t be the last comedic effort in his remarkable career.According to a new report over at Variety, William Shatner has signed on to a headline a new romantic comedy by the name of Senior Moment., which will be directed by Giorgio Serafini. It’s Shatner who steals, or, rather, owns the show here, proving his comedic worth as he plays up Victor’s naivety and insecurity, notably in a too-short dream sequence involving mobility scooters.
#SENIOR MOMENT RELEASE DATE MOVIE#
Things are set up, things are paid off, but the movie never aims high and so never achieves much.

Now Available On Demand, Apple TV, Amazon, Vudu, Fandango Now, Redbox, Google Play, Showtime Network and The Movie. Some unique observations are raised about the triviality of ageing but the script is mild on all fronts. Senior Moment Movie, Palm Springs, California. From the bland cover versions of famous pop songs (opening with a tinny rendition of Shocking Blue’s Venus) to the thin and frothy plot, there isn’t much to get excited or irritated over. The film is a lightweight whichever way one looks at it, although this is hardly a crushing disappointment. On one bus journey he meets the bohemian cafe-owner Caroline (Jean Smart) and promptly begins a relationship with her, leading to some typical romcom shenanigans but missing plenty more. Jean Smart and William Shatner connect during Senior Moment with Christopher Lloyd. Palm Springs Life talked to Goff about the process and the movie. Victor (William Shatner) is a feisty retired NASA test pilot often seen racing around Palm Springs in his vintage Porsche. (“Buses are for old people!” he defiantly exclaims – his attitude isn’t ironic as it is warranted, but humorous all the same). S enior Moment has been slated for theatrical distribution starting March 26, right as everyone considers going back to theaters, although it will also be available for streaming. A drag racing episode with friend Sal (Christopher Lloyd) has revoked Victor of his car and licence, relegating him to taking the bus alongside the frail seniors who contrast so much with his youthful heart. On the roads of the idyllic Palm Springs, former hotshot pilot Victor (Shatner) loses his pride and joy – his vintage Porsche convertible.

How fitting then, in Senior Moment, that the Shat stars as a spry 72-year-old. At the incredible age of 90, with a filmography now spanning eight (yes, eight) decades, Shatner has comfortably settled into a career where he seldom headlines less than three projects a year, and gifts them all with an unwavering wit and energy that’s still indistinguishable from the man he was 20 years ago. DVD releases are typically released around. But like Olivier, something really needs to be said about the Star Trek legend’s longevity, both onscreen and off. Senior Moment DVD release date is set for July 2, 2021, with Blu-ray available the same day as the DVD release. It’s a tired joke in Hollywood that William Shatner’s acting skills aren’t exactly up to Laurence Olivier standards.
