Here's a look at the actors playing Wall Street royalty like Ken Griffin and Steve Cohen in the upcoming GameStop movie 'Dumb Money'

  • "Dumb Money," a film about the GameStop trading fiasco, is set to hit theaters September 22.
  • The movie cast stars like Seth Rogen and Nick Offerman to play real-life finance execs.

It was a story so wild at the time it seemed like Hollywood couldn't have written the script.

The social media-driven trading frenzy that pushed shares of GameStop sky high seemingly overnight captivated not just Wall Street, but the entire country.

Now, more than two years removed from the event, Hollywood is ready to release its own version of the trading saga that rocked Wall Street.

"Dumb Money" chronicles the wild events around the GameStop short-squeeze of 2021. The movie is set for release on September 22.

With so many high-profile Wall Street executives involved in the GameStop sage, people were naturally curious to see who would be cast in the film. When reports first came out about the casting of the movie, I shared some thoughts of where I felt the movie missed the mark.

Now that we're three months away from the movie's release, we got a sneak peek at how the stars will look in-character as they portray some of Wall Street's elite powerbrokers.

Check out pictures from the movie below, along with their real-world counterparts. And you can watch the trailer here.
