EXCLUSIVE: Industry and Bodies Bodies Bodies star Myha’la Herrold is the latest name to join Sony and Black Bear’s starry GameStop movie Dumb Money.Herrold joins Paul Dano, Seth Rogen, Sebastian Stan, Pete Davidson, Shailene Woodley, Anthony Ramos, Vincent D’Onofrio and Dane DeHaan in the dramedy which is currently in production.Based on author Ben Mezrich’s book The Antisocial Network, the movie will tell the story of fortunes made and lost overnight in the David vs Goliath GameStop short squeeze which made headlines far beyond Wall Street last year.
