Paul Walter Hauser to Play U.S. Game Show Winner Michael Larson in ‘Press Your Luck,’ Walton Goggins, Johnny Knoxville Among Cast as Protagonist Launches Sales
quote:
Set in 1984, “Press Your Luck” follows Larson, an unemployed truck driver from Ohio who stepped onto the game show “Press Your Luck” harbouring a secret: the key to endless amounts of money. But his winning streak gets threatened when the executives in the control room start to uncover his real motivations.
The ensemble cast also includes Walton Goggins (“Fallout”), David Strathairn (“Nomadland”), Emmy-nominated Maisie Williams (“Game of Thrones”), Haley Bennett (“Swallow”), Shamier Anderson (“John Wick: Chapter 4”), David Rysdahl (“Fargo”), Johnny Knoxville (“Jackass”), Brian Geraghty (“The Hurt Locker”), Patti Harrison (“Theater Camp”), Shaunette Renée Wilson (“Indiana Jones”), Lilli Kay (“Your Honor,” “Yellowstone”), James Wolk (“Mad Men,” “Watchmen”), Damian Young (“Ozark”) and Ricky Russert (“I, Tonya”).

I'll check this out. That story has always fascinated me, especially back in the days before tech was what it is today. Good for that dude for breaking the system.

Larson used his cash winnings to pay taxes and invested most of the rest in bad real estate deals. As a result, he lost all of his winnings within two years of the show's taping. He later fled Ohio while under investigation for fraud. He was found to be living in Florida when he died of throat cancer at the age of 49
