Paul Dano leads the way in taking over the GameStop stock in the first trailer for Dumb Money.
The film tackles the real life story of how Redditors were able to get the stock price for GameStop to rise significantly and cause a hedge fund worth billions of dollars to go bankrupt in the process.
Sony Pictures is behind the flick, and describe it as the “ultimate David vs. Goliath tale of everyday people who flipped the script on Wall Street and got rich by turning GameStop (yes, the mall videogame store) into the world’s hottest company.”
“In the middle of everything is regular guy Keith Gill (Dano), who starts it all by sinking his life savings into the stock and posting about it. When his social posts start blowing up, so does his life and the lives of everyone following him. As a stock tip becomes a movement, everyone gets rich – until the billionaires fight back, and both sides find their worlds turned upside down.”
Dumb Money also stars Pete Davidson, Vincent D’Onofrio, America Ferrera, Nick Offerman, Anthony Ramos, Sebastian Stan, Shailene Woodley and Seth Rogen, and is directed by Craig Gillespie.
The movie is out in theaters on September 22.
During the real-life event, this celeb lost a lot of money from it!
