That's the good news.
The bad news is, the lottery claim office is closed for the long Fourth of July weekend, so, before he can collect his prize, Kevin is going to have to figure out how to keep a lid on his good fortune and survive the next three days.
The film's all-star ensemble cast is led by Bow Wow ("The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift"), Brandon T. Jackson ("Tropic Thunder"), Naturi Naughton ("Fame"), Keith David ("All About Steve"), Charlie Murphy ("Frankenhood"), Gbenga Akinnagbe ("The Wire"), Terry Crews ("Terminator Salvation," TBS series "Are We There Yet?"), Loretta Devine ("Crash") and Ice Cube ("First Sunday," "Are We There Yet?"). It also stars Bill Bellamy ("Any Given Sunday," TV's "October Road"), Mike Epps ("The Hangover") and Faheem Najm, better known as Grammy Award-winner T-Pain.
"Lottery Ticket" is directed by Erik White, marking his feature directorial debut. The screenplay is by Abdul Williams, from a story by Erik White & Abdul Williams.
It is produced by Mark Burg and Oren Koules, producers on all of the "Saw" horror hits; Alcon Entertainment's Andrew A. Kosove and Broderick Johnson, who recently produced the Academy Award®-nominated smash "The Blind Side"; and Matt Alvarez, whose producing credits include "Are We There Yet?" and its sequel, "Are We Done Yet?" Ice Cube ("Beauty Shop"), Timothy M. Bourne ("The Blind Side") and Steven P. Wegner ("Racing Stripes") serve as executive producers, with co-producers Brad Kaplan, Andrew Wilson and Yolanda T. Cochran.
