The film follows flamboyant producer Mario Kassar (Oscar Isaac) and his pragmatic partner Andrew Vajna (Adrien Brody), two outsiders who gamble everything on First Blood and launch Rambo into cultural legend. As Carolco’s star rises, they attract megastars and visionaries: Sylvester Stallone (Sebastian Stan), Arnold Schwarzenegger (Alexander Skarsgård), Sharon Stone (Florence Pugh), and James Cameron (Jake Gyllenhaal), who delivers the most expensive film ever made, Terminator 2: Judgment Day. Directors like Paul Verhoeven (Rami Malek) and Adrian Lyne (Ralph Fiennes) push boundaries with provocative thrillers, while action icons like Jean-Claude Van Damme (Édgar Ramírez) and Dolph Lundgren (Alexander Ludwig) turn Cannes into a circus. But ambition spirals into excess. Carolco stakes everything on the lavish pirate epic Cutthroat Island, helmed by Renny Harlin (Joel Kinnaman) and starring Geena Davis (Jessica Chastain) and Matthew Modine (Austin Butler). What begins as a dream project descends into chaos, exploding budgets, and career-shattering fallout. As Hollywood looks on, Carolco becomes both a cautionary tale and a legend — a reminder that the brightest flames burn out the fastest.
