Ross Lynch Stars In First 'My Friend Dahmer' Trailer

Ross Lynch hides in the bushes in the newly released trailer for My Friend Dahmer.

The 21-year-old entertainer is stepping away from his Disney roots to portray serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer.

The teaser trailer debuted at 2017 Comic-Con over the weekend, and also features Ross going shirtless a few times throughout.

My Friend Dahmer follows Jeff Dahmer, an awkward teenager struggling to make it through high school with a family life in ruins. He collects roadkill, fixates on a neighborhood jogger, and copes with his unstable mother and well-intentioned father. He begins to act out at school, and his goofball antics win over a group of band-nerds who form The Dahmer Fan Club, headed by Derf Backderf. But this camaraderie can’t mask his growing depravity. Approaching graduation, Jeff spirals further out of control, inching ever closer to madness.

The drama, which also stars Anne Heche, Vincent Kartheiser, Dallas Roberts, and Alex Wolff, will be released later this year.
