Award-winning documentarian Clay Tweel has been set to direct the first authorized feature doc on comedy legend Andy Kaufman for Campfire Studios, Seven Bucks Productions, Worldwide Pants Incorporated and Fifth Season
. He was equally well-known for outlandish stunts, such as readingcover-to-cover onstage in front of a live audience, and offering $1,000 to any woman who could pin him in a wrestling match. Kaufman’s love for professional wrestling also sparked a public feud and multiple “run-ins” with wrestling icon Jerry Lawler.
The Kaufman documentary will investigate the origins of the artist’s unparalleled creative choices and his personal definition of “funny,” aiming to demystify the human being behind the act, with insight from his closest family, friends and collaborators. Producers include Seven Bucks’ Dwayne Johnson, Dany Garcia, Hiram Garcia and Brian Gewirtz, Campfire’s Ross M. Dinerstein, and Shannon Riggs.
