A tabloid tale of the mafia kidnapping a movie studio

Irreverent, funny, and exciting.

Karl Priam isn't such a bad guy, but the Hollywood high life cost him his future as a director... until he survives an armed robbery. A solid performance for the news lands him another movie and it looks like a blockbuster.

Or is it?

There's a war behind the scenes. Head producer Bob Ruckin hates the Internet billionaire who bought the studio and he'll do anything to bring it down: hire a wild-card, coke-headed director; a temperamental diva; an old washed up, heroin-addicted supporting actor; a train-wreck tabloid starlet; and the biggest action star of the last thirty years -- who happens to be the public face of a mind-mastery self-help church. All the ingredients for the biggest flop in history.

But when fast-talking Karl keeps this motley crew on track, Bob calls in the mob to bring the movie down. And all hell breaks loose.

Mobsters don't have time to wrangle with titanic egos and pampered beauties. They'll kidnap or kill anyone to get their hands on the reclusive billionaire.

Can Karl stay clean, dodge bullets, get his actors to fight back, and still make a movie?
