What is the Plot of Roofman?
Roofman follows the true story of a former Army Ranger and struggling father who turns to rob McDonald’s restaurants by cutting holes in their roofs—earning him the nickname “Roofman.” After escaping from prison, he starts a new life while hiding in a toy store—falling in love with a single mother and her two daughters. However, his criminal past and a final robbery threaten to destroy his chance at redemption.
Produced by Lynette Howell Taylor, Jamie Patricof, and Duncan Montgomery. Channing Tatum, Derek Cianfrance, Jonathan Montepare, and Chris Parker from Limelight will serve as executive producers.
