Ben Stiller Looks to Adam Driver for Hipster Coolness in While We're Young Trailer

Posted on December 5, 2014

Ben Stiller and Naomie Watts star in the first trailer for While We're Young. Stiller and Watts play a married couple who are coming to terms with not being as young as they used to be.

Ben Stiller plays Josh and Naomie Watts plays his wife Cornelia. They are in their forties and wondering if they will ever feel like adults. Then they realize they are getting older, and that's really hard to take. Their lives get upended when they meet Jamie and Darby, a twenty-something couple played by Adam Driver and Amanda Seyfried.

The two couples become friends and start to hang out together. Josh goes roller blading and decides to don a hipster hat. Cornelia gamely joins in a hip hop class which is pretty much a total disaster. Alas, it becomes clear that acting like a 25 year old won't actually make you 25 again.

The film takes its themes from Henrik Ibsen's play The Master Builder which was written in 1892. Charles Grodin, Brady Corbet, Gret Lee and Adam Horowitz co-star in supporting roles. The film was written and directed by Noah Baumbach (Frances Ha, Greenberg, Madagascar 3). The film will open in limited release in New York and Los Angeles on March 27, 2015, and will go wide in April, 2015. Worst insult: when Josh's friend tells him that instead of looking hip, he just looks like an old man in a hat. Take a look:
