The Mint

The Mint is a 2015 comedy film directed by Raymond Mamrak and starring JWoww, Kristinia DeBarge, Chris Cardillo and Ashlee Keating. The film is based on a story by Chris Cardillo and adapted into a screenplay by director Raymond Mamrak. Cardillo stars opposite MTV's Jersey Shore's reality star Jenni "JWoww" Farley, who also serves as the film's executive producer, a record executive trying to get his company back on track after the death of his parents. The film also features Kristinia DeBarge, Ashlee Keating, Raw Leiba, and Brian Anthony Wilson in supporting roles. Cardillo stars a record producer that has to find a way to save himself and his family's well known record label. Cardillo began developing the film in January 2014 and while J. Fontaine and the Jersey Mint Records actually exist, the film isn't based on actual events despite Cardillo's involvement. Mamrak was hired and replaced Samuel C. Morrison, Jr. as the screenwriter, in addition to serving as director, producer, and actor. With JWoww set to make her feature film debut, The Mint began filming in New Jersey.
