Czech comedy film “6 gramů” rollout

Overview

In mid‑July 2026, the Czech comedy 6 gramů released its first trailer, introducing a chaotic parent‑teacher meeting sparked by six grams of cocaine found during a school ski‑training outing. The film, directed and written by Miroslav Ondruš, features an ensemble cast including Jiří Mádl, David Novotný, Martin Pechlát, and Ondřej Vetchý.

Following its Slovak cinema debut in early August, which drew positive audience reactions, the film held a star‑studded premiere on 7 August at Prague’s Lucerne cinema. The event was attended by the principal cast and various Czech film personalities. Producer Miloslav Šmídmajer praised the film’s “intelligent, non‑politically correct humor,” while Ondruš described the comedy as “very crazy” and a rarity for the regional market.

In subsequent discussions, lead actor Jiří Mádl, who portrays the naive and physically active Šimon Zdráhala, reflected on his role and mentioned upcoming projects, including a romantic road‑movie titled Rozcestí. By 9 August, critical reception had become mixed, with some reviewers noting a lack of character depth and dramatic tension despite the notable cast.
