Author Jacob McNeal has finally achieved his dream: The Nobel Prize for Literature, and all the trappings that come with it. But the spiraling McNeal has little space to enjoy the honor, as his health, personal relationships, and professional reputation all teeter on the edge of disaster. McNeal himself threatens to push them all over as he delves deeper into his use of AI to tell stories that might not be his to tell. Written by Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Ayad Akhtar (Junk: The Golden Age of Debt), McNeal marked Robert Downey Jr.’s Broadway debut when it premiered in 2024.

Written by Ayad Akhtar
Directed by Geoff Packard
