“The film centers around a down on his luck publicist, who gets his lucky break when he discovers a man recently released from a mental health facility looks just like a method actor who refuses to leave his trailer,” reads the synopsis. “With the help of a powerful producer, the publicist helps the man become a huge star, even marrying his beautiful leading lady. Their adventures lead them to cross paths with drunken costars, irreverent unhoused action heroes, unpredictable directors, super agent, and power-mad moguls. Fame and fortune are not all they’re cracked up to be, and the two men must fight their way back to the things that matter the most.”
Fool’s Paradise is produced by John Rickard, Tim Zajaros, Christopher Lemole, Alex Saks, and Rick Dugdale. Executive producers are Kirk Michael Fellows, Rob Gough, Manu Gargi, and Bob Shapiro.
