A major motion picture comedy filmed last year in Asheville, “Masterminds” starring Kristen Wiig, Zach Galifianakis, Owen Wilson, and Jason Sudeikis, is slated to to release August 19th. Friday, the full length trailer was released. It is hard to say whether or not it will be funny, but it will be interesting to see Asheville on the big screen.
Pack square and the Vance monument are visible in the background at the 0:21 mark in the trailer. Bonus fun for Buncombe county residents, the main character’s name is David Gantt (or Ghantt).
