I guess Mike Matusow could use some extra money considering he's completely broke.

This won't star Matasow. It also won't open in more than a dozen theaters.
Who plays him?
"You run into an asshole in the morning, you ran into an asshole; you run into assholes all day, you're the asshole."
Awesome name for a studio.The story of professional poker star Mike “The Mouth” Matusow is in development as a biopic by 1984 Professional Defense Contractors.
Despite Matusow's well-documented degenerate problems, he is also known to generally be a nice guy and generous when he has money.
I went out to dinner with him and a few others in 2005 (when he had money), and he insisted upon covering the entire dinner bill.
I know a few people (unknowns in poker) that Matusow was putting into tournaments just because they were broke and down on their luck.
A number of years ago, my parents were visiting Vegas during WSOP, and I was walking around with them and showing them the Rio. Mike Matusow spotted me, came up to us, and said to my parents, "Just want to let you know, this guy is a really great limit holdem player", which I thought was a really nice thing for him to do.
No doubt Mike Matusow has done a lot of stupid things, but I really think he's a decent person whose life is repeatedly derailed by addiction issues.
Always rooted for Mike, his book was a good (albeit light) read. Somewhere along the line people forgot that poker on TV was entertainment, Mike never did.
Tom Sizemore would be perfect
obv this movie will not only go str8 to video, it will go str8 to youtube..anything else and they will lose millions
Dave Hester needs a job..
Wonder which B-list actor gets this role? Jonah Hill perhaps?
Either way, great for Mike.
