Indie comedy "The Brooklyn Brothers Beat the Best" will star Michael Weston, Arielle Kebbel, Andrew McCarthy, Christopher McDonald, Melissa Leo, Jason Ritter and Wilmer Valderrama. Project, which began shooting this week in Maryland, is the directorial debut of actor Ryan O'Nan ("The Dry Land"). Producers are Jason Michael Berman and Kwesi Collisson.
The story, penned by O'Nan, centers on a singer-songwriter who has a bizarre run-in with a self-appointed music revolutionary and forms a two-man band that sets across the country.
Project will feature a soundtrack of 14 original songs, written by O'Nan and New York band Crayon Rosary. Exec producers are Mark G. Mathis, Sergio Aguero, Ruth Mutch and Sandy Berman.
