Who's in the Quibi movie Flipped, and where have you seen them before? Directed by Ryan Case, the chapter by chapter production follows two misfits who develop a renovation-themed reality show and end up working for friendly gangsters. Flipped released in April 2020 as part of the Quibi launch lineup.
In Flipped, Jann and Cricket Melfi dream of better lives after losing their jobs. After hate-watching a reality series called "Pros and Connellys," the couple begin their own renovation project, "Flip It & Gone with Cricket and Jann," only to learn that they fixed up an abandoned meth lab owned by Mexican cartel members. Now forced to play a game called "Fix It or Die," the Melfis decide to just do the work while being honest about their opinions. Produced by Funny or Die, Flipped on Quibi was written by Damon Jones and Steve Mallory.
Flipped stars a couple of network TV veterans in the main roles. In addition, two big-name performers portray a powerful Mexican couple. Here's a cast and character guide for Flipped on Quibi.
