Chris Pine’s directorial debut ‘Poolman’ coming to Prime Video this month

Chris Pine makes his directorial debut with ‘Poolman', which is coming to Prime Video courtesy of Signature Entertainment on 28th June 2024.

The Raymond Chandler-style mystery features an all-star cast that includes Pine (‘Star Trek'), Annette Bening (‘Nyad'), Danny DeVito (‘It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia'), DeWanda Wise (‘Jurassic World: Dominion') and Jennifer Jason Leigh (‘The Hateful Eight'). Watch the trailer below:

‘Poolman' is produced by Stacey Sher (‘Gattaca'), Patty Jenkins (‘Wonder Woman'), Ian Gotler (‘Doula') and Pine and is directed by Pine from a script co-written with Gotler.

Darren Barrenman is a hapless dreamer and would-be philosopher  who spends his days looking after the pool of the Tahitian Tiki in sunny  Los Angeles and crashing city council meetings with his neighbours Jack and Diane. When Darren uncovers the greatest water heist in LA history since Chinatown, he makes uneasy alliances with a beautiful and connected femme fatale while following every lead he can with corrupt city officials, burned out Hollywood types, and mysterious benefactors – all in the name of protecting his precious Los Angeles, and his pool.
