While fans know Knoxville as the funny prankster, who used to pull off wild stunts like strolling in rocket skates in “Jackass,” viewers see Knoxville embrace dramatic acting alongside his comedic talent in “Sweet Dreams” .
He’s moved on from the Olympic games in “The Ringer,” and is now playing Morris, a man struggling to sober and is forced to undergo rehabilitation at a facility called Sweet Dreams. When he and his housemates face the possibility of their house being sold out of an auction, Morris signs on to coach a softball team of recovering addicts in an effort to win prize money and buy their house back.
