The Disaster Artist – Audiobook Online
The Disaster Artist is a non-fiction book that tells the story of the making of the 2003 cult film The Room, widely considered to be one of the worst movies ever made. Written by actor Greg Sestero, who played the role of Mark in the movie, and journalist Tom Bissell, the book chronicles the bizarre and often tumultuous production of The Room, which was directed by the enigmatic and eccentric Tommy Wiseau.
Sestero describes his friendship with Wiseau, which began in San Francisco in the late 1990s, and the two eventually decided to move to Los Angeles together to pursue their dreams of becoming movie stars. After several unsuccessful auditions, Wiseau decided to write and direct his own movie, which would become The Room.
The book provides an inside look into the chaotic and unorthodox production of The Room, including Wiseau’s unconventional directing methods, his personal relationships with the cast and crew, and the strange and inexplicable choices he made throughout the filmmaking process. Despite its many flaws, The Room went on to achieve a cult following and has become a beloved fixture in the world of bad movies.
Overall, The Disaster Artist is a fascinating and entertaining read that offers a unique perspective on the making of a cultural phenomenon.

The Disaster Artist
- My Life inside ‘The Room’, the Greatest Bad Movie Ever Made
- Narrated by: Greg Sestero
Nineteen-year-old Greg Sestero met Tommy Wiseau at an acting school in San Francisco. Wiseau’s scenes were rivetingly wrong, yet Sestero, hypnotized by such uninhibited acting, thought, “I have to do a scene with this guy.” That impulse changed both of their lives. Wiseau seemed never to have read the rule book on interpersonal relationships (or the instructions on a bottle of black hair dye), yet he generously offered to put the aspiring actor up in his LA apartment. Sestero’s nascent acting career first sizzled, then fizzled, resulting in Wiseau’s last-second offer to Sestero of co-starring with him in The Room, a movie Wiseau wrote and planned to finance, produce, and direct – in the parking lot of a Hollywood equipment-rental shop.
Wiseau spent $6 million of his own money on his film, but despite the efforts of the disbelieving (and frequently fired) crew and embarrassed (and frequently fired) actors, the movie made no sense. Nevertheless, Wiseau rented a Hollywood billboard featuring his alarming headshot and staged a red carpet premiere. The Room made $1,800 at the box office and closed after two weeks. One reviewer said that watching The Room was like “getting stabbed in the head”.
Disaster Artist is Greg Sestero’s hilarious story of how Tommy Wiseau defied the laws of art, business, and friendship to create “Citizen Kane of lousy movies” (Entertainment Weekly). ), is now an international phenomenon, with Wiseau himself beloved as a quirky celebrity. Written by award-winning journalist Tom Bissell, The Disaster Artist is an awe-inspiring journey, an open-minded portrait of a mysterious man who will randomly capture your heart. excited.
I have listened to hundreds of audiobooks. this book is 1 in 100. Greg Sestero’s performance is incredible and his voice in the text is so strong. Combined with Bissell’s unique strength in narrative, this audiobook is a force. Do not even think of trying to read this when you get so much more from the reading of the audiobook.
