Zach Galifinakis, Elizabeth Banks, Sarah Snook and Geraldine Viswanathan will lead the star-studded cast.<\/p>\n

The film is inspired by the story behind one of the biggest crazes in American culture in the 1990s — beanie babies.<\/p>\n

The film gives a glimpse into the women who powered Ty Warner’s success but whose names weren’t on the heart-shaped nametags.<\/p>\n

It centers around the female relationship to the American Dream and the injustices associated with it.<\/p>\n

The screenplay is based on the book The Great Beanie Baby Bubble: Mass Delusion and the Dark Side of Cute. <\/i><\/p>\n

The Beanie Bubble<\/i> was produced by Imagine Entertainment’s Brian Grazer, Ron Howard and Karen Lunder.<\/p>\n

It’s the first film that will come from an exclusive deal between Apple and Imagine Entertainment for scripted films.<\/p>\n

Apple will partner with Imagine Documentaries on first-look deals for unscripted projects like Black & Blues: The Colorful Ballad of Louis Armstrong<\/i> and the docuseries The Supermodels.<\/i>\n<\/p>\n
