The Righteous Gemstones

Heaven help them. This delightfully twisted comedy tells the story of a world-famous

televangelist family — Eli Gemstone (John Goodman) and his sons Jesse (Danny

McBride) and Kelvin (Adam Devine) — with a long tradition of greed and corruption.

But before you pass judgment, McBride assures viewers: “The goal of it is not a takedown.

For us, it’s about lampooning anyone who doesn’t practice what you preach.”
