Braff and De Niro play the movie producers who are in deep with the mob and come up with a wild west-plot to pay back the dough — make an action-packed Western movie and bring in washed-up actor Duke Montana (played by Tommy Lee Jones) as the star and then accidentally kill him off in a stunt so they can pick up the insurance money and pay back the mob.
