Brigsby Bear

In an original take of the arrested development genre, David McCary’s direction, along with co-writers Mooney and Kevin Costello, unravels the comedy-drama with nostalgic elements of the 80's pop culture.

Twenty-five year old James (Kyle Mooney) lives with his loving parents Ted and April (Mark Hamill and Jane Adams), isolated from the world. James grows up watching Brigsby Bear, a live action children's TV show about a galactic life-size Teddy bear.

When his entire
lifestyle comes to an unexpected halt, James' obsession and fascination with Brigsby Bear leads him to self-produce the movie and, through the power of cinema, help him restore his emotional safety.

In his breakout role, the talented Kyle Mooney portrays the quirky James with sincerity and naiveté creating an instantaneously endearing character.

The feature, along with good performances, unfolds with unsurpassing creativity, lightheartedness, and uncondescending humor.
