Directed by Peter Farrelly, Ricky Stanicky follows three childhood best friends who pull a prank gone wrong. They invent the imaginary Ricky Stanicky to get them out of trouble!
Twenty years after creating this ‘friend,’ Dean, JT, and Wes, played by Zac Efron, Andrew Santino, and Jermaine Fowler, still use the nonexistent Ricky as a handy alibi for their immature behavior.
When their spouses and partners get suspicious and demand to meet the fabled Mr. Stanicky, the guilty trio hires a washed-up actor and raunchy celebrity impersonator, “Rock Hard” Rod, played by John Cena. Together, they bring him to life.
But when Rod takes his role of a lifetime too far, they begin to wish they’d never invented Ricky. Additional cast members include William H. Macy, Lex Scott Davis and Anja Savcic.
