Worst Man

When a 40-year old Best Man (Jason Earles of Hannah Montana, Kickin It’) throws a bachelor party for his newly divorced friend, taking matters into his own hands may lead to chaos, grief, and the potential bankruptcy of their sports bar.

Director Statement

When I saw the statistic that 15% of men do not have a single close friendship, my heart ached for them. With "Worst Man" I attempt to create a snapshot of masculinity that encourages vulnerability and friendship. That encourages not needing to do everything alone. Working with Jason Earles of "Hannah Montana", James Storm who's a former world champion, and Chris Van Vliet who runs a million follower podcast was a dream for bringing in an audience from many different walks of life that can relate to this message and the universal experience of a breakup. Add in the representation of Judi, an +60 actress, and Christophe who is a little person that I've worked with on several projects, "Worst Man" brings together a diverse and talented group of people to tell what I think is an important story. My entire career has been inspired by the heart and humor in shows like "Boy Meets World" and "The Fresh Prince". I attempt to create a contemporary, adult version of this niche to impact a generation that could use a reminder of the importance of community of friends.
