Corporate Espionage

Feature Film in Development

Synopsis:

Vance Vanderson is a bald, dead-beat corporate spy trapped in a dead-end job stealing marginal secrets from big corporations to sell on the black market. His sole mission in life is to get his hair-back so he can reclaim his ex-wife, get his life back on track, and live happily ever after.

One night, Vance discovers a biomed company has developed a new hair growth formula that’s more powerful than anything else on the market. Seizing his chance to live happily ever after, Vance decided to steal the formula for himself. But little does he know, the hair-growth formula isn’t what it seems, and the vengeful CEO of the biomed firm will stop at nothing to get it back.

Accolades:

Corporate Espionage was selected as one of only twenty scripts to pitch at the inaugural Dances With Films “Fever Pitch” competition in 2024. 

Formats:

Corporate Espionage was written as a feature, condensed to a short for the pitch competition, and can be easily adapted into a two episode pilot for a TV series. 

Genre & Tone:

Corporate Espionage is a fun, dark-comedy thriller similar to The Big Lebowski, Barry on HBO, and 2024’s Hitman.

Socially Relevant:

Corporate Espionage talks about something nobody else in Hollywood is talking about right now: negative male body image. 

90% of men have body issues. Corporate Espionage is an action movie that tackles this in a fun, enlightened, non-preachy, non-pandering, easily relatable way that will appeal and resonate with men around the world.
