Set in 1980s New York, Paper Tiger follows two brothers whose pursuit of the American Dream leads them into a dangerous criminal underworld. When ambitious former cop Gary Pearl (Adam Driver) draws his younger brother Irwin (Miles Teller), a hardworking engineer, into a seemingly lucrative business opportunity, their hopes for financial security quickly unravel.

Scarlett Johansson co-stars in James Gray’s gripping family crime drama about ambition, betrayal, and the devastating price of chasing a better life.
