Back in March, I shared my thoughts on the Netflix Premiere of the 30-minute TEAM HOT WHEELS special. Now comes some news that’s a little on the short-notice side, but worth taking note of… This weekend – June 7 & 8 only – TEAM HOT WHEELS: THE ORIGIN OF AWESOME heads into theaters in a special big-screen presentation from Fathom Events and Mattel. Tickets are available now via Fandango and theater box offices, with screenings taking place both days at 11am local time in select theaters. Check out a preview and details below, right here on THE ROCK FATHER!

About the Film:
Making its big screen debut, this larger-than-life feature-length event will introduce cinema audiences to four kids Gage, Rhett, Wyatt and Brandon, who are tasked with stopping a mysterious black car who is transforming their sleepy town of Hilly Woodlands into a chaotic mess. With the help of Larry, an eccentric gear head scientist, these lifelong racing fanatics get the keys to the fastest, coolest cars of all time, as they learn to work together to out-race the mystery car and ultimately become Team Hot Wheels®!
Team Hot Wheels®: The Origin of Awesome Event will also feature interviews with the mad geniuses at Mattel who created Team Hot Wheels®, as well as a first-hand look at early sketches and concept art showing how the characters were developed and brought to life.
As I mentioned back in March, vehicles from TEAM HOT WHEELS: THE ORIGIN OF AWESOME have been making their way into retailers, and we’ve since located all four! Now we just need to find that “mysterious black car” so that our team has a proper villain to race…
