"That's what you think? You're not from Jersey."
Audiences this summer can experience the Garden State's Frankie Valli and his Jersey Boys, though, courtesy of Clint Eastwood's adaptation of the Broadway musical. The Tony-winning John Lloyd Young reprises his role as Frankie Valli for the film, and if the first trailer, below, is any indication, the classic songs of Valli and the Four Seasons translate well on screen.
Will audiences clamor for another musical-turned-movie, though? We'll find out when Jersey Boys hits theaters on June 20. --Sarah Eberspacher
