Good girls going bad a bit earlier than expected. A24 has announced a slight change in the release date of Harmony Korine's festival favorite, soon-to-be-cult-classic sensation Spring Breakers. The wild spring break flick stars James Franco as well as Vanessa Hudgens, Selena Gomez, Ashley Benson and Rachel Korine as underage spring break partiers. Originally set for March 22nd, A24 confirms it will now release limited in New York and Los Angeles starting March 15th, one week earlier, before hitting theaters "nationwide" on March 22nd. Damn. Get ready for the James Franco party! Yep, this is actually a fun film.

This is also the perfect time to share this insane, but totally awesome new UK poster for Spring Breakers:

In Spring Breakers, Brit (Ashley Benson), Candy (Vanessa Hudgens), Cotty (Rachel Korine) & Faith (Selena Gomez) have been best friends since grade school. They live together in a boring college dorm and are hungry for adventure. All they have to do is save enough money for spring break to get their shot at having some real fun. A serendipitous encounter with rapper "Alien" promises to provide the girls with all the thrill and excitement they could hope for. Harmony Korine (of low key indie films like Trash Humpers and Mister Lonely) wrote and directed Spring Breakers, which premiered at TIFF 2012 and the Venice Film Festival. A24 Pictures will release Korine's Spring Breakers limited in NY & LA starting on March 15th next month.
