Film: Startup

2017 | Created by Ben Ketai; with Martin Freeman, Adam Brody, Edi Gathegi, Otmara Marrero, Jocelin Donahue, Ashley Hinshaw

Includes a conversation with actors Adam Brody, Edi Gathegl, and Otmara Marrero, and creator/executive producer/director Ben Ketai

Season two of StartUp, Crackle’s 10-episode, one-hour original drama, picks up on the streets of Miami following the takeover of GenCoin, an unregulated global cryptocurrency. With their startup now in the hands of the Russian Mob, our unlikely trio, Izzy Morales, Ronald Dacey, and Nick Talman, reinvest in their partnership and launch an exciting new endeavor, a darknet prototype called ArakNet. But as their decentralized network begins to grow, so too does the peril, the corruption, and the moral turpitude. As our heroes attempt to stay alive long enough to triumph, the sophomore season of StartUp poses the all-important question—what is the cost of ambition—and reveals the frightening lengths one might go to achieve ultimate success.
