Paul Walter Hauser Wins Big in 'The Luckiest Man In America' Trailer

"We have a problem... Somebody didn't vet this guy." IFC FIlms has unveiled an official trailer for an indie thriller based on a true story from the 1980s called The Luckiest Man In America, the second feature directed by filmmaker Samir Oliveros. This premiered at the 2024 Toronto Film Festival last year and will debut in US theaters this April. Go behind the scenes of the most infamous episode in game show history, as an ice cream truck driver harboring a powerful secret charms his way onto the game show Press Your Luck on CBS. The Luckiest Man In America is set in May of 1984. An unemployed ice cream truck driver steps onto the game show Press Your Luck harboring a secret: the key to endless money. But his winning streak is threatened when the bewildered executives uncover his real motivations. Starring Paul Walter Hauser as Michael Larson, with Walton Goggins, Shamier Anderson, David Strathairn, Maisie Williams, Patti Harrison, Brian Geraghty, Haley Bennett, and Johnny Knoxville. Reminds me of last year's game show thriller Woman of the Hour, but there's something else going on in here... There's a whole long Wikipedia about how he pulled off his tricks if you're curious. Or just wait to see this in theaters next month. // Continue Reading ›
