Shriver (Michael Shannon), a down-on-his-luck handyman who has never read a book in his life, is mistaken for a famous writer that has been in hiding for over 20 years. With nothing to lose, he accepts an invitation to attend a college literary festival and finds himself surrounded by adoring fans and an English professor (Kate Hudson) who captures his heart. Shriver must do whatever it takes for his shot at love in this fish-out-of-water comedy.

Directed by Michael Maren, the film stars Michael Shannon, Kate Hudson, Don Johnson, Da'Vine Joy Randolph, Zach Braff, Wendie Malick, Kate Linder, Aja Naomi King, Jimmi Simpson, Peyton List, M. Emmet Walsh, Mark Boone Junior, Perry Mattfeld and Adhir Kalyan.
