The Hero Who Couldn’t Get Off the Couch | Sidekicks (Action / Comedy)

What does a superhero do when he doesn’t feel super? After miraculously gaining incredible powers, two best friends should be living the dream. But when one of them becomes trapped by self-doubt, isolation, and his own insecurities, the other must step in to remind him of who he really is. Blending action, comedy, and heartfelt storytelling, Sidekicks explores friendship, mental health, and the challenges of finding your worth—even when you have the power to do almost anything. Part live-action adventure and part motion-comic experience, Sidekicks serves as a proof of concept for a larger story about growing up, overcoming adversity, and realizing your true potential.
