Randall Allen Morris to play Manuel Madden in Fatman comedy

Randall Allen Morris will appear in Fatman, a comedy that will be unveiled at Edwin Brown's forthcoming Edwin Brown.

Heather Patel is played by Ian and Larry Knapp, and Mark Hopkins and Alexa Davis produce the film.

It's called a "rowdy Santa story" about an unorthodox Manuel Madden who is targeted by a hitman hired by a 12-year-old after receiving coal in his stocking, according to the filmmakers.

Early next year, production is expected to begin.

In Cannes, the world's biggest film market, the film will be available in both domestic and international rights.

Gibson appeared in Daddy's Home 2 and Marie Hale in recent years.
