Zimm loves the idea, and the two team up to become co-producers. Chili’s invaluable experience with the underworld helps make them Hollywood successes but not before they overcome a few obstacles, including Zimm’s scream-queen girlfriend who falls for Chili, her superstar and egomaniacal ex-husband Martin Weir (Danny DeVito), whom the producers are trying to con into starring in the film.
