Jay and Silent Bob's Jason Mewes makes his feature film directorial debut Madness in the Method, a meta and personal exploration of the actor's career, his partnership with Kevin Smith and Hollywood's weird landscape as a whole.

You can watch our exclusive trailer for the film in either the player above or embedded below. We also have the exclusive poster for the film below.

Madness in the Method also marks the final movie for the late Marvel Comics icon Stan Lee, who makes his last cameo in the film as -- surprise! -- himself.

The movie also stars Kevin Smith, Danny Trejo (as a campy version of himself), Gina Carano, Jaime Camil, Vinnie Jones, Teri Hatcher, Brian O’Halloran, Dean Cain, Blake Harrison, Casper Van Dien, Judd Nelson and David Dastmalchian.

Madness in the Method sees Mewes, after years of struggling with addiction and trying to carve out a career for himself outside of his "Jay" role opposite Kevin Smith. He discovers a secretive method acting book ... which leads to some dark and disastrous events.

Cinedigm will release Madness in the Method theatrically and digitally day and date August 2nd.
