Sony has uploaded the official red band trailer for the comedy Dumb Money [DUMBM] based on the true story of the GameStop meme stock that pitted small investors on Reddit vs. hedge fund managers on Wall Street. Paul Dano, Pete Davidson, Vincent D’Onofrio, America Ferrera, Nick Offerman, Anthony Ramos, Sebastian Stan, Shailene Woodley and Seth Rogen star in the film directed by Craig Gillespie. Based on the book “The Antisocial Network” by Ben Mezrich, Dumb Money opens in theaters on September 22nd.
Dumb Money is the ultimate David vs. Goliath tale, based on the insane true story 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 (Paul 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.
