John Carney, writer/director of ONCE, returns with POWER BALLAD, starring Paul Rudd and Nick Jonas.
Jonas plays a fading pop star who, after an all-night songwriting session with a 50-ish wedding singer played by Rudd, takes a song that was never his to record.

Paul Rudd delivers a winning performance in Power Ballad, a charming but slight musical drama from John Carney that never reaches the emotional highs of Once, Begin Again, or Sing Street.
