EXCLUSIVE: Danny DeVito, Lucy DeVito, and Jake DeVito’s film and production company Jersey Films 2nd Avenue are rolling the cameras on the thriller comedy feature Drag which stars 2x Primetime Emmy nominee Lizzy Caplan (Fleishman is in Trouble, Zero Day), Lucy DeVito (A Sudden Case of Christmas, Little Demon), John Stamos (Big Shot, Scream Queens), and Christine Ko (Dave, The Handmaid’s Tale).
