Summary

UNDISCOVERED, a romantic comedy with a big heart, begins during a cold, winter New York City day. What seems like just another ordinary afternoon soon proves to be the beginning of a relationship between two people that will change their lives forever. Struggling musician Luke Falcon, played by STEVEN STRAIT, exits a crowded subway train and accidentally drops one of his gloves. It is picked up by Brier Tucket, played by PELL JAMES, a beautiful young model whom he spotted on the train. Unable to get back onboard, Luke tosses the remaining glove to her. Their eyes meet and it is love at first sight. But as the train pulls out they know they’ll never meet again. Each carries on with their lives, searching for their dream. Luke wants to become a singer-songwriter and heads to Los Angeles where he starts regularly playing The Mint nightclub. Brier wants to become an actress and thinks she should go to Hollywood as well. Her agent, Carrie, played by CARRIE FISHER, encourages her but warns her against getting involved with another rock star musician like Mick, played by STEPHEN MOYER, a guy she is in love with but who constantly gives her the run-around and is not exactly Mr. Faithful. At acting class, Brier makes friends with Clea, played by ASHLEE SIMPSON, an actress and sometimes singer. When they go to the Mint, Luke is performing and Clea joins him on stage. He immediately recognizes Brier but it is not until he asks the audience if they have seen his missing glove that she realizes who he is. Brier and Clea decide to try and help Luke make it as a popular singer. Through Carrie, they enlist the help of Josie, played by SHANNYN SOSSAMON, a stunningly beautiful Brazilian model who is now seen accompanying Luke everywhere, resulting in his name and picture landing on “Page Six.” As Luke starts to become the Next Big Thing, he is signed to a contract by record producer and label president, Garrett Schweck, played by FISHER STEVENS. Luke’s growing success begins to affect his relationships with his friends and even his brother Euan, played by KIP PARDUE, who warns him about how he is beginning to change for the worse. Brier is ending her relationship with Mick and she hears from Euan that Luke really loves her. Luke fights with Josie and, when Brier explains that she and Clea were responsible for putting them together, he walks out on her leaving her in tears. Josie tells Schweck that he was tricked and everyone cheering Luke at the club was organized by his friends. The producer immediately drops his contract and Luke’s concert dates start getting cancelled. Luke and Clea get together to write a song and he is asked to play at The Mint again. Brier, meanwhile, has decided to go back to New York. When Carrie brings a well-known impresario into the club to hear Luke, all the young music executives take note. However, when he hears that the impresario is also giving Brier a ride to the airport, he and Euan take off after her. After hassles with airport security and a loan from Euan, Luke finally makes it on to the plane for New York. As Brier settles down for the flight, the flight attendant approaches and gently tosses a glove into her lap...
