The official trailer for Sony’s “Dumb Money” has dropped, shedding light on how a group of amateur investors artificially increased the stock value of GameStop, the popular video game retailer.
The short squeeze occurred in January 2021 after Reddit users on a page called “Wall Street Bets” united to catalyze a market explosion. As a result, significant hedge funds and independent short sellers incurred devastating financial loss.
Based on author Ben Mezrich’s “The Antisocial Network,” “Dumb Money” similarly centers around the Reddit users behind the phenomenon with actors Seth Rogen, Paul Dano, Sebastian Stan and Pete Davidson in lead roles.
The star-studded cast also includes Nick Offerman, Shailene Woodley, America Ferrera, Dane DeHaan, Vincent D’Onofrio, Clancy Brown, Anthony Ramos, Kate Burton, Christina Brucato, Deniz Akdeniz, Talia Ryder, Myha’la Herrold, Larry Owens and Rushi Kota.
Emmy-nominated director Craig Gillespie, best known for his work on projects like “I, Tonya,” “Cruella” and “Lars and the Real Girl,” is directing and producing the upcoming narrative feature. “Dumb Money” marks Gillespie’s reunion with actors Rogen, Stan and Offerman — all of whom starred in his 2022 miniseries “Pam & Tommy.”
Screenwriters Rebecca Angelo and Lauren Schuker Blum adapted the original novel for screen. The writing duo double as executive producers on the project alongside Mezrich, John Friedberg, Michael Heimler, Johnny Holland, Andrew Swett, Kevin Ulrich, Cameron Winklevoss and Tyler Winklevoss.
Post-production is currently underway for “Dumb Money,” which is expected to premiere in theaters Sept. 22 through Stage 6 Films and Sony Pictures Releasing.
TWO YEARS AGO, the bizarre story dominating the news cycle wasn’t about a group of billionaires lost at sea, but a different group of billionaires panicking as amateur investors on Reddit and YouTube inflated a doomed GameStop stock to get rich quick. In the first trailer for Dumb Money, the upcoming film based on Ben Mezrich’s book The Antisocial Network, financial analyst Keith Gil (portrayed by Paul Dano) takes that GameStop short squeeze a very long way.
When Gil’s wife, portrayed by Shailene Woodley, asks how much he made in a day, he sheepishly responds with a life-changing dollar amount neither of them can fully comprehend: $5 million. But when multi-millionaire hedge fund manager Gabe Plotkin (Seth Rogen) is asked a similar question by his own wife — “how much did we lose today?” — he answers with a devastating amount: a billion.
During the entire saga, the stock-buying app Robinhood functioned as the playing ground that essentially transferred all of this money from the pockets of the rich into the hands of the poor. And while these new investors learned how to play a game they had been intentionally kept out of with convoluted rules, the Wall Street veterans on the inside scrambled to hit reset and regain control before they lost it all to some losers on the internet.
Dumb Money, which hits theaters Sept. 22, features appearances from Pete Davidson, America Ferrera, Nick Offerman, Anthony Ramos, Vincent D’Onofrio (playing hedge fund manager and New York Mets owner Steve Cohen), and Sebastian Stan. It was directed by Craig Gillespie with a based-on-a-true-story screenplay written by Lauren Schuker and Rebecca Angelo.
