Synopsis

Three childhood friends, after pulling off a prank that backfires, create the fictional character Ricky Stanicky to avoid getting into trouble. Two decades later, they continue to use this imaginary figure as an excuse for their childish actions. However, when their spouses and partners grow suspicious and insist on meeting the legendary Mr. Stanicky in person, the trio decides to hire a down-on-his-luck actor and raunchy celebrity impersonator to portray him.

The scale of the collaboration

A crew of 84+ credited

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
