Sony Screen Gems has debuted the first trailer for the sports drama Battle of the Year [BATYR] starring Chris Brown [CHBRO] and Josh Peck [JPECK] as B-boys competiting in the Olympics of break-dancing. Battle of the Year opens in 3D on January 25, 2013.
Los Angeles Hip Hop mogul and former B-Boy Dante (Laz Alonso) wants to put the country that started the Sport back on top. He enlists his hard-luck friend Blake (Josh Holloway), who was a championship basketball coach, to coach his team. Armed with the theory that the right coach can make any team champions, they assemble a Dream Team of all the best b-boys across the country. With only three months until Battle of the Year, Blake has to use every tactic he knows to get twelve talented individuals to come together as a team if they're going to bring the Trophy back to America where it started. Inspired by the actual World championship held yearly in France.
