After two films of true friendship and relentless flirting, Poppy (Anna Kendrick) and Branch (Justin Timberlake) are now officially, finally, a couple (#broppy)!

(Grammy winner Daveed Diggs; “Hamilton”) and Clay (Grammy winner Kid Cudi; “Don’t Look Up”). BroZone disbanded when Branch was still a baby, as did the family, and Branch hasn’t seen his brothers since. But when Branch’s bro Floyd is kidnapped for his musical talents by a pair of nefarious pop-star villains — Velvet (Emmy winner Amy Schumer; “Trainwreck”) and Veneer (Grammy winner and Tony nominee Andrew Rannells; “The Book of Mormon”) — Branch and Poppy embark on a harrowing and emotional journey to reunite the other brothers and rescue Floyd from a fate even worse than pop-culture obscurity.
