Jamie and Amy Kaye chat with David & Lorenzo Henrie from "This Is The Year"

This Is The Year is a contemporary spin on many of the classic 80’s movies that resonated with that era’s youth. It aims to address the issues facing teens today – high school friendships, romances, escapades, change and more – speaking their language and breaking through with a story that actually means something.

In the film, in a last-ditch effort to win over the girl of his dreams, a nerdy high school senior (Lorenzo Henrie – Fear the Walking Dead, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.) and his best friends embark on a road trip to see their favorite band – lovelytheband – at the hottest music festival of the year, Front and Center, only to discover true love in the most unexpected place. Joining Lorenzo and David are Gregg Sulkin and Jeff Garlin, also alumni of Wizards of Waverly Place, and other cast members Vanessa Marano, Jake Short, Alyssa Jirrels and Bug Hall.
