Snoochie Rebootchies!

Kevin Smith was supposed to introduce a first look at the trailer for his new movie, “Jay and Silent Bob Reboot,” this Saturday at San Diego Comic-Con.

But he just couldn’t wait that long. The director, writer and creator of the New Jersey-set View Askewniverse films that started with “Clerks” in 1994, posted the trailer on Thursday, teasing a movie tour with co-star Jay Mewes.

“SNOOGANS!,” Smith, 48, tweeted on Thursday afternoon. “Rather than make you wait until Saturday night after Hall H (which is when and where Smith will be featured at Comic-Con), we’re gonna show you the #JayAndSilentBobReboot trailer RIGHT NOW! If you like it, come see the movie, me & @JayMewes on the #RebootRoadshow Tour this fall!”

Smith, of course, plays (a significantly slimmer) Silent Bob and Mewes, 45, plays Jay. Both grew up in Highlands. After “Clerks,” they went on to appear as Jay and Silent Bob in a string of Smith’s films.

The logline for the movie, from Lionsgate and Saban Films: “When Jay and Silent Bob discover that Hollywood is rebooting an old movie based on them, the clueless duo embark on another cross-country mission to stop it all over again!” Remember “Bluntman and Chronic”? Yeah, that movie.

Partially set at Comic-Con, the trailer plays on something Smith knows all too well: Kevin Smith hate.

“What do you guys think about this reboot?” a fan asks Jason Biggs and James Van Der Beek, who make cameos in the movie.

“It sucks,” says Biggs (who grew up in Hasbrouck Heights). “There, I said it. And who’s directing this sh-t, anyway? Kevin f---ing Smith?!?” (Yes, apparently Smith and Silent Bob exist in the same universe.)

After the trailer, Smith and Mewes, calling themselves “refugees from the ’90s," introduced the tour, the Jay & Silent Bob Reboot Roadshow, for which they will attend screenings of the film nationwide from Oct. 21 through Dec. 12. So far, there are no New Jersey dates listed, but the tour will stop at Philadelphia’s Prince Theatre on Nov. 7 and in New York (location TBA) on Nov. 9.

Smith filmed the movie, a follow-up to the 2001 film “Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back,” in New Orleans. While chronicling the making of the movie for a series of YouTube videos, he teared up after seeing how “movie magic” recreated Leonardo’s Quick Stop convenience store in Louisiana.

“Jay and Silent Bob Reboot" is out in October. Smith began production on the Jay and Silent Bob sequel in February, on the one-year anniversary of the day he suffered a massive heart attack in 2018. After the heart attack, he started out on a mission to lose weight. He ended up becoming vegan and dropping more than 50 pounds, signing on as a Weight Watchers ambassador.

The movie features a long list of returning characters, guest stars and cameos, especially from the View Askewniverse.

Brian O’Halloran returns as Dante Hicks, Rosario Dawson is back as a different character than in “Clerks II,”, Shannon Elizabeth reprises the role of Justice, Jennifer Schwalbach Smith — Smith’s wife — is back in a new role, “Chasing Amy” star Joey Lauren Adams returns as Alyssa Jones and Jason Lee is Brodie Bruce and Banky Edwards. Smith’s daughter Harley Quinn Smith plays Justice’s daughter Milly (who we’re told is also Jay’s daughter), who is named after the Millennium Falcon in “Star Wars.”

Val Kilmer plays Bluntman in the reboot Jay and Silent Bob are trying to stop, and Melissa Benoist plays Chronic. Smith directed four episodes of “Supergirl," the CW series starring Benoist.

The trailer also features brief appearances from Matt Damon, who starred in Smith’s 1999 film “Dogma,” his “Dogma” co-star Ben Affleck, who also starred in “Chasing Amy,” and Fred Armisen.

In addition to those actors, plus Van Der Beek and Biggs, we’ll see appearances from frequent Smith collaborator Justin Long, Method Man and Newark’s Redman, Joe Manganiello, Chris Hemsworth, Craig Robinson, Jersey City native Kate Micucci, Diedrich Bader and Frankie Shaw (“SMILF”).

Smith will be back in New Jersey on August 3 to read the script for the unmade movie “Clerks III." The event, set for the First Avenue Playhouse in Atlantic Highlands, is a benefit for the theater.
