Directed by James Cox (“Wonderland, Straight A’s”) and co-written by Captain Mauzner, the movie is about a real story of boys at an exclusive investment-and-social club in the 1980s.

The “Billionaire Boys Club” was organized by sons of wealthy families living in Southern California in 1983. They entice businessmen with get-rich-quick schemes to invest in their “ventures,” but the money actually funds the lavish lifestyle of the club members.

But in 1984, the club’s funds started to run out, and everything was downhill from there.

Taron Egerton plays Dean Karny, a professional tennis player and one of the members of the club. Meanwhile, Academy Award Winner Kevin Spacey is the mysterious Beverly Hills high roller Ron Levin.
