Directed by Judd Apatow, The King of Staten Island follows Scott, played by Pete Davidson. A case of arrested development ever since his firefighter father died when he was seven. Scott is now in his mid-20s with very little achieved, chasing his dream of becoming a tattoo artist that appears never to come true. 

His sister, played by Maude Apatow, is a complete opposite, ambitious, heading off to college. Scott still lives at home with his exhausted mother, an ER nurse, played by Marisa Tomei. 

Scott’s days include smoking weed, hanging with the guys, Ricky Velez, Moises Arias, Lou Wilson, while secretly hooking up with his childhood friend Kelsey, played by Bel Powley. 

Then, his mother starts dating a loudmouth firefighter named Ray, played by Bill Burr, which sets off a chain of events. Scott’s life spins and forces him to grapple with his grief and take the first tentative steps toward moving forward in life. 

Also cast in the movie Steve Buscemi as Papa, a veteran firefighter who takes Scott under his wing. Pamela Adion also stars as Ray’s former wife, Gina. 

Davidson is a former SNL member taking on Apatow’s movie as a comedy about laughter, loss, and love on Staten Island. Apatow, Davidson, and former SNL writer Dave Sirus wrote the script.
