Club Kid Plot Summary: What We Know So Far

New York nightlife is the centre of Club Kid, the 2026 comedy-drama written and directed by Jordan Firstman. The story follows a club promoter whose life revolves around late nights, packed dance floors and the next big party. That routine suddenly faces a challenge he never saw coming: a 10-year-old boy turns up, and he turns out to be the promoter’s son, a child he never knew existed.

What follows is a story about growing up late. A man who has built his identity around the party scene now has to consider what responsibility, parenthood and stability might look like. The film’s themes include fatherhood, the bond between a father and son, and the pull of a hedonistic millennial lifestyle set in the 2010s. Settings include Brooklyn, with London also part of the story’s world. DJ culture, LGBT life and the weight of addiction all appear in the film’s backdrop.

This summary stays with the premise and avoids any details beyond the setup.
