Chris Pine, known for his roles in popular films such as Wonder Woman and The Princess Diaries, recently made his directorial debut with the film Poolman. Premiering at the 2023 Toronto International Film Festival, Poolman follows the story of pool cleaner Darren, played by Pine, who uncovers a conspiracy and embarks on a mission to protect Los Angeles.
Despite featuring a talented cast including Annette Bening, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Danny DeVito, and DeWanda Wise, the film received a lukewarm reception from critics. With a 23% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, Poolman stands as one of the lowest-rated films in Pine's career.
