Jesse and Jonas Go West!

Jesse and Jonas Go West! is an upcoming American 3D computer-animated buddy action-comedy film produced by Splash Animation. It is scheduled to be released on October 19, 2018 by Paramount Pictures.

Premise
In August 1997, two boys named Jesse Herriman (Jeremy Shada) and Jonas Presley (Charlie Tahan) are hired to take a part in an action movie produced by the EmberMark Entertainment studio in Los Angeles, California, but soon are pulled off track by the Los Angeles Police Department, who relies on them to reach the bottom of an incident involving the theft of box office earnings from critically acclaimed movies.

Plot
On August 2, 1997, in New York City, best friends Jesse Herriman and Charlie Tahan arrive at a local cinema to discover that it has been closed along with many other theaters in the United States, due to reports of a theater robbery taking place in Phoenix, Arizona. They decide to record their own film at a warehouse.

Development
Adrian Hancock developed an idea for a project titled Jesse & Jonas in 2010; it originally centered on the titular protagonists being hip hop fans who are sent to rehabilitation in an orchestral camp run by a greedy counselor, after misbehaving at a party on the last day of school. In 2011, however, Hancock re-developed the film and its story under its expanded title Jesse & Jonas Go West!, focusing more on the characters' mission to protect film studios in California from unexpected bankruptcies.

The film was announced in December 2014, along with the beginning of pre-production stage.

The film drew unexpected similarities to another animated film set in Los Angeles in the 1990's, Palm City (2017). However, Hancock stated that the premise of the film focused more on high school-aged slackers. He cited the Bill &amp; Ted duology to be the film's major influence, while also stating that the film would be similar to The Interview (2014), but a "much less violent (and much less racist) version of it".

More coming soon!
