Michael Shannon is mistaken for Bigfoot in trailer for Pottersville

November 3, 2017 by Amie Cranswick

With just a week to go until its release, a poster and trailer have arrived online for Seth Henrikson’s directorial feature debut Pottersville. The festive comedy stars Michael Shannon as a store owner who is mistaken for Bigfoot one night while taking a drunken wonder around town, and features a cast that also includes Judy Greer, Thomas Lennon, Ron Perlman, Christina Hendricks, and Ian McShane; check them out below…

“It’s a long cold winter in Pottersville, and struggling store owner Maynard (Shannon) is hit by hard times. During a late-night drunken wander through town, Maynard is mistaken for the legendary Bigfoot, setting off an international media spectacle and attracting a lot of much needed business for the town. When TVs Monster Hunter, Brock Masterson, (Lennon) turns up and joins the Sheriff (Perlman) in his hunt for the beast, Maynard must maintain the illusion to protect the rebirth of his beloved town.”

Pottersville is set for release on November 10th.
