Insatiable’s Dallas Roberts & Arden Myrin hit the comedy trail in ‘Road Dogs’

Dallas Roberts (Dallas Buyers Club, 3:10 to Yuma), Arden Myrin (MADtv, Orange is the New Black), and Harvey Guillén (What We Do in the Shadows, Reacher) are gearing up to play troubled stand-up comics in award-winning director Vanessa Leigh’s indie dark comedy, Road Dogs.

Set to begin filming this summer, Road Dogs follows three stand-up comedians as they hit the road for a simple weekend showcase, only to have their plans derailed by a crooked club owner and her homicidal bouncer. Roberts and Myrin both starred in Netflix’s hit show, Insatiable, and are eager to work together again on something equally dark and irreverent.

Aaron W. Bennett and Vanessa Leigh co-wrote the script, which is based on Bennett’s time as an improv comic and comedy club owner in Central Washington. The duo will produce alongside Kris Black from Residue Remains Productions, and Hunter G. Williams of Busted Knuckle Productions, who’s serving as Executive Producer.

Road Dogs is Leigh’s feature film debut.
