What’s it about? 

Purple Rose of Cairo meets Lethal Weapon. 

​

Jack Slater is the ultimate action hero, his films bringing new meaning to the word Bombastic. Danny Madigan's his biggest fan, finding escapism from the grim realities of real life. 

 

​

Things take a turn when Danny is propelled through the silver screen and into Jack's world of high-octane gun fights, impossible escapes and larger than life heroes and villains. 

​

Danny and Jack must take on the bad guys on both sides of the screen, for a meta, reality bending adventure, both learning the importance of substance as well as spectacle.
