Lionsgate and Snoop Dogg have been busy producing the upcoming 1992 film which pinpoints the turbulent times of Los Angeles during the early 1990s. Starring Tyrese Gibson, Scott Eastwood and Ray Liotta, the film’s official release date was recently announced for later this summer.

The Ariel Vromen-directed crime thriller sees the late Ray Liotta star in one of his final movie roles. The trailer, which was released earlier this week, sees Gibson star as Mercer, who appears to try to restart his life while patching up his relationship with his son played by Christopher Ammanuel. The film is set during the time of Los Angeles’ uprising over the Rodney King verdict.

Vromen co-wrote the screenplay with Sascha Penn and co-produced the film with Andreas Rommel, Maurice Fadida and Adam Kolbrenner. The film also reunites Snoop and Gibson who previously co-starred with one another in John Singleton’s 2001 drama Baby Boy. Producing alongside Death Row Pictures, Snoop revealed in a statement about the importance of that time and this film to him, “1992 was a life-changing time for me, from Deep Cover to The Chronic. But as things in my life were coming together, everything in L.A. was coming apart. 1992 is a heist movie that really captures all of that. This movie is about an L.A. moment. Ariel made an outstanding film that depicts this moment in time. From my first encounter with Tyrese in Baby Boy to the performance in 1992, I had to be a part of this. And it’s only fitting that the film come out under Death Row Pictures as Death Row is synonymous with L.A. culture in the ’90s, ya dig?”

1992 is slated to release in theaters on August 30.
