If you’re heading out to the city so nice they named it twice in a few weeks’ time for New York Comic Con, you now have one more reason to be excited: Zero Charisma, the film directed by Katie Graham and Andrew Matthews and distributed by Nerdist Industries and Tribeca Films, will have its Big Apple premiere on Thursday, October 10th, the convention’s opening night. The directors, as well as star Sam Eidson, will be in attendance during the invitation-only screening, open to a select number of fans attending NYCC.

From the press release:

“New York Comic Con is the ultimate destination for the latest and greatest in entertainment,” said Lance Fensterman, Global Vice President of ReedPOP “Zero Charisma is a signature piece of nerdom cinema that we know is going to resonate with our Fans and as the dungeon master of the event, I’m thrilled to kick off this year’s event with its screening.”

“We’re extremely excited to be premiering Zero Charisma at New York Comic Con,” said directors Katie Graham and Andrew Matthews. “It’s hard to believe that this film we shot literally in our backyard last year is about revealed to a wide audience and we any think of a more fitting way to kick it off!”

Tribeca Film and Nerdist Industries will co-release the film this fall beginning October 8, 2013 on cable/telco and satellite video-on-demand platforms, as well as iTunes, Amazon Watch Instantly, VUDU, Xbox, Playstation, and Google Play, followed by a theatrical release on October 11, 2013.
