Written and directed byCasey Tebo, the film also stars Britne Oldford and Vanessa Lengies.
But in several scenes, the show is effectively stolen by Aerosmith frontman Steven Tyler.
Ive known Casey since he was ankle-high to a platypus, the singer tells EW.

So to see his career reach the point it has, how could I say no?
Hes worked very hard.
He may look like he should be sleeping on the streets of Venice, but hes the nicest guy.
Plus, have you seen the trailer?
If he asked me to play a bank teller, Im not so sure.
ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: What was the shoot like?
But you know what?
Theres a family vibe on shows like that.
Its like playing clubs when you start out.
You carry your own amps, your cousin is selling the T-shirts.
It only takes one person for the next step.
Clive Davis came to see Aerosmith, the next day he signed us.
So maybe the right person seesHappy Birthday,and Casey is doing a studio movie.
How did you prepare to play a larger-than-life character like Kasape Suka?
Its hard, you know?
I had to try and find someone I knew who was kind of like that.
Tell us a little bit about your look in the film.
So much that goes into movies, set design, costume, hair, makeup… Is ring sting method acting?
Yeah… so The beard?
We superglued it on my face, and over a year later Im still peeling that stuff off.
