Plot

In the fast-paced world of Hollywood, Ben, a seasoned producer, finds himself embroiled in a whirlwind week that tests his tenacity, wit, and heart. Tasked with the herculean feat of ensuring his latest film is ready to debut at Cannes in a mere fortnight, Ben must navigate through a sea of challenges that threaten to capsize his project. His mission is complicated by a high-strung director hell-bent on preserving his artistic vision, an obstinate studio boss demanding drastic edits to the film, and the unexpected arrival of the film's star, Bruce Willis, on set sporting an unscripted beard. This throws Ben into a frantic negotiation with the star's agent, as another studio head refuses to give the green light unless the beard vanishes. Simultaneously, Ben is trying to mend fences with his recent ex-wife, Kelly, while suspicions arise about a potential lover in her life. Amid the professional chaos, he also strives to maintain a connection with his 17-year-old daughter from a previous marriage, whose recent emotional distress hasn't escaped his notice. Caught in the crossfire of professional demands and personal dilemmas, Ben must masterfully orchestrate his way through these shark-infested Hollywood waters. Can he push his film past the crisis, secure the coveted Cannes spot, and perhaps find his way back into Kelly's heart, all while keeping his personal life from unraveling? "What Just Happened" is a compelling journey into the life of a Hollywood producer, where the line between success and disaster is blurred, and every decision could be a game-changer.
