Papa Bear

Exposed as a fraud, an A-list celebrity must find a way to prove that his reputation wasn't built on lies, but it's not easy when his biggest accuser is his own daughter.

With an Oscar showcased on his shelf, and the nickname Papa Bear for his work with at-risk youth, Chad Gibson's life resembles a popcorn movie. But something is missing. His nickname reminds him of the one thing he can't be--a father. Until a show-stopper of a TikTok exploded.
The girl in the video claims to be his daughter, threatening his hard-earned moniker.

Dimmi Van Der Merwe disappeared from the limelight seventeen years ago after an unexpected pregnancy forced her to give up a life-changing role. Heartbroken, without her career or boyfriend, Chad Gibson, she returned home to South Africa. She leads an unglamorous life as a mother to teenage twins, burying their father and the truth of her past. Until the same TikTok blows up her suburban life.

Thrown into tabloid hell, Dimmi and Papa Bear struggle to navigate the fallout of the video. Will Dimmi be able to handle the limelight she escaped from years ago and save her daughters from the destruction of her lies? Will Chad redeem himself, save his career, and hold on to the name Papa Bear?
