Trailer For ACCIDENTAL TEXAN Starring Thomas Haden Church, Carrie-Anne Moss, and Bruce Dern
Here’s a trailer for a charming-looking new film titled Accidental Texan, which has a great cast that includes Thomas Haden Church, Rudy Pankow, Carrie-Anne Moss, and Bruce Dern. This is one of those inspirational feel-good films, which I tend to enjoy because we don’t see enough of them.
In this film, “Fresh-faced recent Harvard student Erwin (Rudy Pankow) flames out of his first professional acting job when he forgets to turn off his phone and triggers an explosive nightmare on set. His career and cell phone in tatters, he flees the New Orleans set, only to have his car break down deep in the heart of Texas oil country. Seeking refuge and some possible phone service in a local diner, he meets Faye (Carrie-Anne Moss), a kind waitress who takes pity on him and offers up the local phone book to find a mechanic. Without enough funds to fix his car, Erwin accepts an offer from Merle, a local oil driller (Thomas Haden Church) only to find out he too is nearly bankrupt and cannot pay his bills. With both men in desperate straits, Merle realizes their only hope may be Erwin’s acting skills and a little help from Faye’s shotgun.”
The movie was directed by Mark Bristol and it’s based on the novel Chocolate Lizards. by Cole Thompson. It comes from the same production company that developed The Peanut Butter Falcon. The movie will be released on March 8th.
