CM Punk is listed (under his real name, Phil Brooks) as part of the cast for the upcoming comedy film Let’s Start A Cult, which has recently revealed a new poster.
The synopsis of the film, set for a 10/25 theatrical release, is as follows:
Having missed out on his cult’s long awaited ritual suicide, an obnoxious loser teams up with his bogus ex-messiah to rebuild their doomsday commune. Traveling together through middle America, the constantly-bickering duo induct a military wannabe, a mentally unstable mom, and a mysterious foreign hitchhiker into their cult… but will this family of outcasts fulfill their transcendent destiny, or decide this life might be worth living after all?
News of the casting comes after Punk signed with Paradigm Talent Agency in June, and adds the comedy to his filmography consisting of The Girl on the Third Floor, Jakob’s Wife, Mayans MC, and Heels.
