Plan B and Icki Eneo Arlo, the Robert Pattinson-fronted banner, are producing the feature that has indie darling India Donaldson directing.
David Jonsson, Cooper Hoffman and Paul Dano are leading the drama, centered on a drug dealer and his two slacker buddies hired to transport a troubled teen across the country. Hoffman is one of the “chaperones,” a young man who is aggressive and reckless. Jonsson is Cooper’s partner, a reluctant participant in the chaperoning business. Dano is the drug dealer.
Barratt is playing the teen who needs to be chaperoned while Deadwyler is playing Jonsson’s sister. Molina is playing Hoffman’s sleazy boss. Other character details are unknown.
Sebastian Black wrote the script for the feature, which is now in production.
