Watch: Nick Nolte and Robert Redford Go for ‘A Walk in the Woods’ in First Trailer & Poster

A Walk in the Woods premiered at this year’s Sundance Film Festival and was picked up by new distributor Broadgreen Pictures, though I have to admit I didn’t hear much of anything about this little comedy adventure starring Nick Nolte and Robert Redford, though based on the look and description alone it seems like descriptors such as “light hearted” and “sweet” would likely suffice. Here’s the plot:

In this new comedy adventure, celebrated travel writer, Bill Bryson (Academy Award winner Robert Redford), instead of retiring to enjoy his loving and beautiful wife (Academy Award winner Emma Thompson), and large and happy family, challenges himself to hike the Appalachian Trail – 2,200 miles of America’s most unspoiled, spectacular and rugged countryside from Georgia to Maine. The peace and tranquility he hopes to find, though, is anything but, once he agrees to being accompanied by the only person he can find willing to join him on the trek – his long lost and former friend Katz (Academy Award nominee Nick Nolte), a down-on-his-luck serial philanderer who, after a lifetime of relying on his charm and wits to keep one step ahead of the law – sees the trip as a way to sneak out of paying some debts and sneak into one last adventure before its too late. The trouble is, the two have a completely different definition of the word, “adventure”. Now they’re about to find out that when you push yourself to the edge, the real fun begins.

Broadgreen will bring the film to theaters on Sep. 2 and today we have the first trailer and poster, give each a look below and let me know where this one lands on your radar in the comments.
