A stressed-out guy in a dead-end job who is told he has a terminal "brain cloud." A zany jillionaire then makes him an offer that gives him a fleeting taste of the good life. In exchange, he must journey to a Pacific island and leap into a volcano. Is Joe doomed to be the last of the red hot lovers? Not if the forces of imagination, romantic comedy and the charm of Ryan in three roles as the women in Joe's life have their way.

Witty and beautiful." -Sheila Benson, Los Angeles Times Laughs erupt when Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan fall in love and fall in lava - in Joe Versus the Volcano, a stylish laughquake written and directed by Moonstruck Academy Award® winner John Patrick Shanley.
