Production

In November 2014, it was announced that Mann had won Project Greenlight's season 4 contest to direct a film for HBO. Originally the contest winner was going to direct Not Another Pretty Woman, a broad comedy screenplay. However, after Mann shared the script for a full-length version of a short film he had written, The Leisure Class, it was decided he would instead direct that script. HBO set the film's budget at $3 million.

The main character is played by Ed Weeks, and his brother, Leonard, is played by Tom Bell. The matriarch of the wealthy family is played by Brenda Strong. The film's cast also includes Bruce Davison, Rory Knox Johnston, Christine Lakin, Bridget Regan, Scottie Thompson, and Melanie Zanetti.
