The Plot
Riggan Thomas, once known quite well to movie
theater goers as an iconic super hero called "The Birdman" had recently
turned down a fourth installment of the franchise. Now washed up, he
attempts to reinvent himself as a director by staging a new retelling of
a classic Broadway dramatic play called "What We Talk About When We
Talk About Love". The events leading up to the Saturday night premiere
prove to be one disaster after another as the original lead actor is
injured while on set and Riggan scrambles to find a replacement, but the
replacement proves to be exactly who he needs - a method actor who
takes the job way too seriously. But Riggan has a hard time juggling
between the set, his replacement actor, his equally washed up daughter,
and a host of other disasters that prevent a proper staging of the play.
Meanwhile, a New York Times critic who Riggan has to woo threatens to
shut down production of the play before it even starts with a scathing
review of the opening night performance. Does Riggan have a hit on his
hands or will he even make it past opening night?
