Schneider wrote, directed and stars in Stand On It, which is a tribute to the 1977 hit, Smokey and the Bandit. Schneider’s wife (and film producer) Alicia Allain helmed the new film — their 11th project together. The script’s inspiration came from the couple’s love for the Burt Reynolds’ classic. Fun Fact: Schneider makes a brief and uncredited appearance at the end of Smokey and the Bandit – his first on-screen appearance that came just 2 years before he shot to fame in The Dukes of Hazzard.
