The Disaster Artist tells the true story of the making of the film The Room, which has been called “the ‘Citizen Kane’ of bad movies.” Tommy Wiseau’s cult classic has been screening to sold out audiences nationwide for more than a decade.
James Franco, who steps into the Wiseau role, directed The Disaster Artist from a screenplay by Scott Neustadter & Michael H. Weber, based on the book by Greg Sestero and Tom Bissell. Franco leads the cast, alongside Dave Franco and Seth Rogen. The ensemble also features Alison Brie, Zac Efron, Josh Hutcherson, Jacki Weaver, Ari Graynor, and Jason Mantzoukas.
The behind the scenes creative team on The Disaster Artist was led by director of photography Brandon Trost, production designer Chris Spellman, costume designer Brenda Abbandandolo, and editor Stacey Schroeder. The score was composed by Dave Porter. The film was produced by Franco, Vince Jolivette, Seth Rogen, James Weaver, and Evan Goldberg.
