Music superstar and internationally celebrated performer Josh Groban continues to make the big leap to the silver screen with his latest acting venture, the CollegeHumor-produced comedy COFFEE TOWN, and a trailer has just been released for the forthcoming feature.

Groban stars alongside Glenn Howerton, Steve Little, Ben Schwartz and Adrianne Palicki in the film, which was written and directed by Brad Copeland.

The official synopsis of COFFEE TOWN is as follows: "The first feature film from comedy leaders CollegeHumor, Coffee Town is an updated workplace comedy for the generation that works out of coffee shops. Will (Glenn Howerton) is a 30-something website manager who uses a local café, Coffee Town, as his office. When the owners of the shop discuss plans to convert Coffee Town into a bar, Will enlists the help of his two best friends Chad and Gino (Steve Little and Ben Schwartz) to save his freeloading existence. In order to thwart the plans of Coffee Town's owners, the trio stages a robbery to create the illusion of an unsafe neighborhood not suitable for the proposed venue. Also standing in their way is Sam (Josh Groban), a disgruntled barista with delusions of rock star grandeur, and Will's heartache over unrequited love for Becca (Adrianne Palicki)."

Groban previously appeared onscreen in CRAZY, STUPID, LOVE as well as in the PBS and DVD/Blu-ray of the Royal Albert Hall production of the musical CHESS.

COFFEE TOWN will be released on July 9.
