Channing Tatum and Jonah Hill are reprising their roles as Jenko and Scmidt, the hapless cops in the sequel to "21 Jump Street", aptly called "22 Jump Street." This time, though, the pair will be going off to college to catch a drug supplier.
The film's first trailer has already been revealed, and the clip shows the duo enjoying life in college: driving into a wall of beer cans, sharing co-ed bathrooms, shot-gunning beers, and even driving a giant football helmet - things that you will essentially notice in the trailer.
Then there's Hill dressing up as a kind of emo-goth, which according to Rolling Stone, is inspired by "the fashion sense of the Cure's Robert Smith, Mötley Crüe's Nikki Sixx and Nirvana's Kurt Cobain."
An old characters shows up unexpectedly when the trailer finds the duo reuniting with the surly P.E. teacher from the first movie, Mr. Walters.
Here is Cinema Blend's official synopsis for 22 Jump Street:
After making their way through high school (twice), big changes are in store for officers Schmidt (Jonah Hill) and Jenko (Channing Tatum) when they go deep undercover at a local college. But when Jenko meets a kindred spirit on the football team, and Schmidt infiltrates the bohemian art major scene, they begin to question their partnership. Now they don't have to just crack the case - they have to figure out if they can have a mature relationship. If these two overgrown adolescents can grow from freshmen into real men, college might be the best thing that ever happened to them.
The new movie will be directed by Phil Lord and Chris Miller, and is written by Michael Bacall and Oren Uziel.
Audience may be looking forward to this sequel, as the predecessor made a mark on 2012 Top Tens, which included the Breakthrough list, Best Action Sequence, and Best Lines of Dialogue.
"22 Jump Street" will be in theaters on June 13, 2014.
