The Paramount+ Original film “Jerry & Marge Go Large” tracks Cranston’s Jerry, who is disillusioned with his corporate job after working in the same company for 42 years. While being pushed to retire, Jerry discovers a mathematical loophole in the lottery and, with the help of his wife Marge (Bening), uses their winnings to revive a small Michigan town by splitting the profits. The film debuts Friday, June 17 on the streamer.

In addition to Cranston and Bening, the cast includes Larry Wilmore, Rainn Wilson, Anna Camp, Ann Harada, Jake McDorman, Michael McKean and Uly Schlesinger.

“Jerry & Marge Go Large” is directed by Academy Award winner David Frankel (who most recently helmed two episodes of “Inventing Anna”) and written by Emmy nominee Brad Copeland.

Bening, after “Death on the Nile,” is also set to star in another real-life adaptation based on 64-year-old marathon swimmer Diana Nyad who attempted to become the first person to ever swim from Cuba to Florida. Bening will play the titular role in the biopic “Nyad,” with Jodie Foster and Rhys Ifan also starring. Bening additionally leads the feature “Poolman,” written, directed, and starring Chris Pine about a poolkeeper who discovers a Los Angeles water heist.
