As we all know Avril is turning the *classic* tale in Sk8er Boi into a movie. So far we know that she has a writer and director onboard but we donβt yet know who. This thread is for updates, theories, ideas, dream casting and everything in between!

I'm hoping for a killer soundtrack with maybe a few new songs written just for the movie from Avril.

I just watched Mid90s directed by Jonah Hill and itβs centered around skaters and the relationships and characters feel very grounded in reality while still having some really funny jokes in there. That movie has a much more serious overall tone than Iβd want for this one but the camaraderie and simultaneous conflicts between the skaters was well done. The aestheticccccc was also cool with some fish eye lens shots and Jonahβs writing if he wrote on it was funny when it needed to be.

I wonder if this movie really is going to happen or that it will stick to a nice idea. She has some people for it but to really start filming and such takes a lot of time I think? With her being on tour and she wants to be involved so that will be a bit difficult maybe.

I think no matter how long it takes, the movie will happen no matter what. Sheβd look so stupid if it never got finished, considering how much she has talked about it to the media and there are several articles on it. She kind of has to do it now.

I am way more of a movie guy than a music guy - managed cinemas and video stores (yup, I'm old) for fifteen years and have a personal collection of around 1500 titles - so I will have more to say once we know something solid about this for sure. But for now (besides a killer soundtrack) what is everyone expecting this movie to be about story-wise? When should it take place?
I posted my ideas down one night when I couldn't sleep and I'll cut-and-paste them below. Does that sound like something you'd want to see? I'm sure Avril has a super different approach that's way lighter than mine! How would you make it if you had a say? What do you want from it?
Without further ado, here's me from May 12th, 2022 (from the Let Go 20th Anniversary thread):
I do know how my version ends and I'd use 'Tomorrow' from Let Go as the score over top of it until we hit the end credits when, of course, 'Sk8er Boi' would have to play!

I love the originality here and the fact that you took a different angle. Iβm basically imagining a coming of age type movie with half of it being their youth to set the scene and then the 5 year time skip being the other half seeing where everyone lands. (But told with honestly, humor and compassion so it feels real and compelling)

Facts and Iβd prefer if it took long and turned out being a good movie than it being rushed and mid because I think it has a lot of potential

Heard this song on a βSounds like the 2000sβ playlist and I think itβd make a good theme song for the ballet girlβs friend group. I think the soundtrack should have Avril, old 2000s classics and new songs with that times vibe to keep things fresh for viewers.

Watching Senior Year and itβs so cuteee. When Sk8er Boi played I got my life. The humor was great!

I hope some members of her old band are in the movie. That would be awesome!
