"It's time to make a mess," said Emily.Would-be movie producer Emily Bennett didn't believe the legend of a lost movie, starring James Dean and John Wayne. But when she meets two uncannily talented celebrity impersonators-Jimmy Riley and Tom "Duke" Manfredo, and stumbles upon the elusive film editor who stole the master negative of Showdown, it dispels her doubts, fills her with a courage she didn't know she had, and she sets out to complete the movie. But as Emily and her stars prepare for day one of shooting, they find themselves entangled in a complex love triangle with Oedipal undertones, mirroring their own past lives and off-screen dynamics. As doubts about their ruthless director, Solange Borugian, surface, Jimmy's and Duke's friendship is turned upside down, while Emily and her brother Ben, struggle with their own unresolved issues and are forced to confront their dying father. On location in Arizona, amidst Apache holy grounds and the magic of day-for-night shooting, the lines between past and present blur and the flawed characters' backstories intertwine into a tumultuous finale that exposes their hidden animosities, demons, and loves.…

A lost film. A legendary cast. And a final take that could tear them all apart.

Emily Bennett never believed the rumor that Showdown—a 1950s Western supposedly starring John Wayne and James Dean—was real. But when she tracks down the reclusive film editor who may have stolen the original negative, her skepticism turns into obsession.
Determined to finish what history couldn’t, Emily assembles an unlikely cast: two uncannily gifted celebrity impersonators, a fierce and unrelenting director, and her estranged brother, a damaged actor with something to prove. Each of them carries scars from a fractured past, but none more than Emily herself—still reeling from the emotional wreckage of a father who never wanted her.
As production begins in the haunting landscapes of Arizona, strange parallels emerge between the film’s storyline and the crew’s off-screen relationships. Tensions erupt. Alliances shift. And an unexpected love triangle unearths secrets that refuse to stay buried.
What started as an audacious filmmaking gamble becomes a reckoning. With the cameras rolling and tempers flaring, Showdown threatens to become more than a movie—it might be their final shot at healing... or their most spectacular collapse.
