Brian Levant has been signed on to direct Cedric the Entertainer in the Blue Star Pictures and Revolution Studios comedy Mr. Lucky.
The film finds Cedric playing Malcolm Crowley, a former Vegas high roller now broke and living contentedly at a spiritual retreat in the Tibetan Himalayas. He’s mistaken for a multimillionaire, whisked away to the brand new Everest Casino in Las Vegas and given a $2 million credit line. Before the hotel realizes its mistake, he’s won $15 million.
