Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping movie quotes bring the story of a borderline out of control pop singer to theaters in a music mockumentary. The comedy film was written by The Lonely Island trio of Akiva Schaffer, Andy Samberg and Jorma Taccone. Samberg also portrays the main character while Schaffer and Taccone directed. Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping opened in theaters on June 3, 2016.
In Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping, the life of Conner Friel (Sandy Samberg), AKA Conner4real, is chronicled. From comments about his musical talent from his mother (Joan Cusack) to moments captured with his love interest Ashley (Imogen Poots) to run-ins with paparazzi and his nemesis (Will Arnett and Martin Sheen, respectively), all aspects of Connor's life are showcased.
Also featured are no fewer than all 32 of his paid staff including his manager (Tim Meadows), publicist (Sarah Silverman), DJ (Jorma Taccone), lyricist (Akiva Schaffer) and roadie (Bill Hader). Like any normal pop star, Conner also employs a bagpiper (Will Forte), and, perhaps most importantly, unicorn tamer (Pink).
Featuring a slew of celebrity cameos, Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping opened in theaters alongside movies such as Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows, Alice Through the Looking Glass, X-Men: Apocalypse and The Nice Guys.
