Starring cast of the parody movie "Stupid Gold" adapted from the GameStopo stock price incident announced

According to DEADLINE, after signing the project in April, director Craig Gillespie found a familiar all-star cast to star in his latest film. DEADLINE learned through sources that Paul Dano (The Riddler in "The New Batman"), Seth Rogen (comedy star starring in "The Green Hornet" and "The Hangover"), Sebastian Stan (The Winter Soldier in "Captain America") and Pete Davidson (who starred in 2021's "The Suicide Squad") will star in Black Bear Pictures' new film "Dumb Money". The film is adapted from Ben Mezrich's book "The Antisocial Network".

Filming is expected to begin in October. Mezrich himself confirmed the cast on Twitter.

The film will tell the story of the previous stock price incident of GameStop, an American game retailer. GameStop's stock price continued to soar in 2021. Some hedge funds shorted GameStop stocks and bought them down, and as a result, many retail investors took advantage of this to buy stocks at high prices, causing some hedge funds to suffer heavy losses. The incident became a legendary story in the technology industry and Wall Street. While the incident was still hot, MGM planted the copyright of Mezrich's book and announced that it would be adapted into a movie.

Ben Mezrich previously wrote another best-selling book, "The Accidental Billionaires," which tells the story of the founding of Facebook. It was later adapted into the well-received movie "The Social Network."
