According to ABC News, Danish comedian Rasmus Wallbridge spent four months believing he was making a feature film with his creative partner, when in fact he was the unwitting subject of an elaborate television prank. The outlet's headline described him as a comedian who "unwittingly stars in elaborate TV prank."

ABC News reported that the arrangement ran for four months, during which Wallbridge understood the project to be a feature film. The headline and summary together indicate that the film was the premise he believed, while the broadcast was a television prank, but the summary does not say how the two were connected.

The summary does not say how the production was arranged, which broadcaster or program carried the prank, when Wallbridge learned the truth, or how he responded to it. ABC News did not name his creative partner in the material reviewed for this story, and it identified no other participant.

According to the page address, ABC News filed the item under its Entertainment section. Because its summary describes the project only as a feature film, the report does not indicate whether other people involved in the production knew its true purpose.

The wire item carried no byline in the record consulted for this account. This account relies only on the headline and summary that ABC News published, and no further detail has been added to them.

Readers who want the complete account can consult the original ABC News report on the Danish comedian.
