King's Ransom
Big man. Big plan. Big mistake.
Directed by Jeffrey W. Byrd
Produced by New Line Cinema, Catch 23 Entertainment
A comedic caper built on escalating schemes and double-crosses, where a selfish businessman's plan to outwit his wife spirals into chaos when multiple parties converge on his ransom.
Hoping to foil his own gold-digging wife's plan, a loathsome businessman arranges his own kidnapping, only to realize that there are plenty of other people interested in his wealth as well.
