For those of you craving a few previews with an edge, we have a pair of red-band trailers that aren’t afraid to let the f-bombs fly! Zac Efron does “The Macarena” while naked (almost) in the latest trailer for Dirty Grandpa. But what was supposed to be an innocent bonding trip has turned into a spring break of debauchery, as all the old man wants to do is get laid.

The red-band trailer for the raunchy R-rated comedy doesn’t hold back, with Zac Efron playing the straight man to De Niro’s newly widowed senior citizen who’s single and ready to mingle with college-aged girls.
When the first trailer for Dirty Grandpa was released at the end of last month it failed to show any inclination that it might actually be amusing.
Drugs, alcohol, probably nudity (no digital underwear this time), and far more than sexual innuendo populate this red-band trailer, and it’s just doing nothing for me.
Don’t cry for De Niro, cry for those who live in alternate universes where De Niro went on trying to make serious movies instead of saying the hell with it and climbing into the sack with Aubrey Plaza. But lo and behold it actually does make it look as though Dirty Grandpa could be worthwhile after all.
In addition to De Niro, Efron and Plaza, the film is also slated to feature Julianne Hough as Efron’s prim and controlling fiancé, as well as Danny Glover and Dermot Mulroney.
