With every bit of the life savings he's socked away over the years, The BBT hatches a plan to help out this older brother escape the repercussions of his fate by complicating his own with the assistance of five close friends -- ERIK, DEREK, JAMIE, K.C. and KYLE. The gang have only four days to create a 'red herring' that will throw off the officials and clear The BBT's brother's name by actually robbing a small bank. If all goes to plan, this is enough 'reasonable doubt' in the brother's case to clear his name.

Trivia

Nobody auditioned for their part. Three actors (Anthony Hansen, Emilio Rossal and Azmyth Kaminski) were cast from head shots and demo reels. Johnny Scalco knew Josh Roman from college. Scott Bailey answered an ad from Craigslist. Before they started production, a "fake" trailer was shot with no dialogue to see if everyone got along.

Crazy Credits

The closing credits include a person who had yet to be born: The bank teller "Yvonne" (played by Liat Roman) was actually pregnant during production. After "Jamie" takes a picture of her, he checks the display on his camera and the belly is featured in closeup. The filmmakers wanted to give this baby bump a credit in the movie, so they waited until Liam Roman was born and credited him as "Bump".

Alternate Versions

The version of 'Bank Roll' that played at various film festivals had music included in many of the scenes. The filmmakers removed all the music for DVD and video on demand sales, but bootleg copies of the festival version have been floating around.
