Madness in the Method is a 2019 American crime comedy film directed by and starring Jason Mewes, written by Chris Anastasi and Dominic Burns and produced by Mewes, Burns and Rob Weston through Autumnwood Media in association with Happy Hour Productions. The film is Mewes's debut as a director.[1] Mewes and several other cast members play fictional versions of themselves.

Plot

Character actor Jason Mewes struggles to gain legitimacy as an actor, as he has been typecast for decades with Kevin Smith as Jay and Silent Bob in the latter's View Askewniverse films. He decides to try method acting to reinvent himself, but it has negative effects on his sanity after he accidentally kills a director.
