EXCLUSIVE: Comedian and actor Dane Cook is partnering with Canadian broadcaster Super Channel to produce the feature documentary Brace for Impact: The Dane Cook Story.
The documentary will chronicle Cook’s rise to stardom, his personal life, experiences throughout the years, and his career. Cook also faced his own personal highs and lows, including a legal battle with a member of his family, which he will open up about for the first time. “Working alongside Rocky Mudaliar, Adam Scorgie and Brett Harvey as we dig into the treasure trove that is my past has been cathartic, magical and wild.
With this doc people will be invited into the complex journey of my personal life and career as a professional entertainer,” Cook says. “From dealing with the death of my parents to cancer, arriving at superstardom without a net, and of course, the central point — putting my only brother in prison, we’re capturing a wildly entertaining doc that lands itself in both the comedy and true crime genres.
What we are presenting is savagely funny and hilariously heartbreaking.” Cook will serve as executive producer on Brace for Impact alongside Scorgie and Shane Fennessey’s Score G Production Films and Mudaliar’s Abrupt Films.
