He plays “troubled boyfriend” Dennis in the independent production, written and directed by actor Frank Whaley and also starring Leighton Meester (Gossip Girl) and Debra Messing (Will & Grace).

Armstrong also appears in upcoming film Geezer, playing 40-year-old Perry, who goes through a mid-life crisis when he meets his former bandmates and an ex-girlfriend at a party.

Green Day will be inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame in April.
