Seth Rogen and Pete Davidson are starring in the inevitable GameStop dramatization<p>As if
multipledocumentaries, podcasts and books weren't enough to tell the tale of last year's
GameStop stock squeeze, a feature film about the saga is in the works. Seth Rogen (
aka Donkey Kong), Pete Davidson, Sebastian Stan and Paul Dano will star in
Dumb Money, which starts filming this month, according to
Variety.</p><p>Craig Gillespie (
Pam & Tommy, Cruella) will direct the film, which is based on the nonfiction book
The Antisocial Network by Ben Mezrich. It will focus on
the Redditors at the heart of the story. If you recall, a group of users banded together on the r/WallStreetBets subreddit to artificially send GameStop stock soaring. Hedge funds and short sellers felt the brunt of the squeeze, with at least one hedge fund
closing shop as a result. The situation even
caught the attention of Congress amid calls for stricter regulation of the stock market.</p><span id="end-legacy-contents"></span>
