“I think they’ve categorized him as a Southern finance bro,” Patrick told Robb Report of his role. “He’s a complete flirt that works under his father and is kind of stuck in his father’s shadow but is trying to make a name for himself in that industry, and just in life. But he’s a person that will say anything that’s on his mind and is just looking for a great vacation.
“Parker Posey plays my mom, and Jason Isaacs plays my dad. I’m the eldest of the group and I have a younger sister (Sarah Catherine Hook) and a younger brother (Sam Nivola) who I feel are lost and I’m there to help them. I can’t say much more.”
