About the movie
The origins of the well-known “Florida Man” meme are explored in the upcoming Netflix limited series “Florida Man,” as revealed by its creator and executive producer, Donald Todd.
Todd believes that the state’s unpredictable nature, being a thin layer of land over water, has contributed to the independence and defiance of its inhabitants. The series focuses on an ex-cop, played by Edgar Ramírez, as he navigates the unique and strange aspects of Florida.
The plot
Although it seems that “Florida Man” is inspired by the infamous memes, the upcoming series is not directly based on any particular headline. It’s a fictional narrative that follows ex-cop Mike Valentine, who is reluctantly sent to Florida to retrieve Delly.
He plans to leave the state forever once the job is done. However, he soon finds himself caught up in a web of crimes and secrets from his past, making his escape more difficult than he ever imagined. The show features plenty of action, including explosions, fights, guns, and even a woman using a flamethrower on a raccoon.
In short, Valentine becomes embroiled in the unpredictable chaos of Florida and will face an uphill battle to rescue Delly and escape with his life.
