Airplane Mode (2019 film)

Airplane Mode is a 2019 American surreal action comedy film directed by David Dinetz and Dylan Trussell, and written by Dinetz, Trussell, Logan Paul and Jake Paul. Logan Paul portrays the main character, a fictionalized version of himself, who is put in a situation where he has to overcome his fear of flying in order to land a plane containing a group of famous social media influencers. Chloe Bridges, Stephen Guarino, Arielle Vandenberg, Kevin Heffernan, Nick Swardson, Mikaela Hoover, Chris Wylde and Erik Griffin have supporting roles in the film, and it was also the final screen credit for Beverly Polcyn, who died 16 days after the film's release, at the age of 90.

Filming began in 2016, and it was supposed to be released a year later. However, the film was shelved due to the controversy surrounding Logan Paul and the suicide forest video, and it was eventually released on August 2, 2019, on iTunes. Airplane Mode only has one professional review, which was negative, and the film was universally panned by YouTube commentary channels. In December 2020, Logan Paul was sued for upwards of $3 million after his controversial Suicide Forest video led to the companies exclusive publishing deal with Google to be suspended. Planeless Pictures, who secured a deal with the popular influencer in 2016, believes that Paul uploaded the Suicide Forest video in a deliberate attempt to sabotage the film's production, claiming that Paul should be held responsible for paying back the production company's losses.
