EdTV is a movie directed by Ron Howard released in 1999.
It stars Matthew McConaughey, Jenna Elfman, Woody Harrelson, Elizabeth Hurley, Ellen DeGeneres, Martin Landau, Rob Reiner, Sally Kirkland, and Dennis Hopper.
It is an adaptation of the locally successful Quebecois movie Louis 19, le roi des ondes, released in 1994.
Its plot has been called superficially similar to that of The Truman Show. The differences come from the fact that unlike Truman, Ed (McConaughey) has knowledge and consent that his life is a reality television show.
