The New ‘American Ultra’ Posters Join This Group of Far-Out Stoner Movies

It’s surprising with how topical and popular marijuana currently is (recreational use of it is now legal in multiple states!) that we don’t see more stoner movies in theaters. That looks to be changing with the emergence of American Ultra, starring Kristen Stewart and Jesse Eisenberg as two stoners whose lives are uprooted when they learn the government wants to wipe them out. 

Of note: The film was written by fan-favorite Max Landis (Chronicle).

Here are the movie’s first two posters, along with an image. And in case you didn’t think they’d be leaning into the stoner thing too much, well…

American Ultra is due in theaters on August 21, and the presence of these images leads us to believe its first trailer isn’t too far behind.

So while we wait to toke out with the first trailer, see if you catch a buzz off our picks for the best all-time stoner movie posters.
