Kurupt FM fans, it’s time to get excited as the first trailer for the upcoming film, People Just Do Nothing: Big In Japan, has finally dropped.

BBC Three’s mockumentary series is a cult favourite, and followed the lives of the employees at the ‘biggest pirate radio station’ in Brentford, before it came to an end in 2018.

A teaser for the upcoming film shows that things are looking up for the group – who are in the process of swapping the UK for Japan.

Of course, it’s not quite as easy as just getting on a plane, with the trailer suggesting there is trouble ahead for Chabuddy G (Asim Chaudhry) and co.

Will they survive the trip of a lifetime?

The official synopsis reads: ‘Since the end of their pirate radio station, life has been quiet for the Kurupt FM boys, but everything is about to change. News reaches them that one of their songs has been used on a popular game show in Japan. They’ve made it!

‘Their music is reaching hundreds of thousands of people! It’s finally time for them to enjoy the fame and fortune that they’ve always known they deserved.

‘Chabuddy G steps excitedly back into his management role as Grindah, Beats, Steves and Decoy begin their journey to international stardom… But is Japan really ready for Kurupt FM?’

We’re going to say no…

Fans were understandably thrilled by the glimpse at the flick, which is hitting the big screen in August.

Flocking to Twitter to discuss the scenes, one penned: ‘Now this looks funny af.’

‘Can’t wait to see this, nothing but laughs from start to finish lol,’ another agreed, as a follower replied: ‘What a time to be alive.’

‘This is the best thing I’ve seen in a while,’ a Twitter user commented, as a viewer added: ‘I’m starting a countdown. Literally cannot wait. Steves in Japan [sic].’

People Just Do Nothing: Big In Japan is released in cinemas on August 18.
