EXCLUSIVE: Here’s a first look at Harland Williams‘ upcoming indie comedy feature Wingman ahead of an advanced screening in Toronto today.
Starring Williams, Kayla Wallace, Jamie Kennedy, Russell Peters, David Lipper and Shiva Negar, the feature revolves around Bob (Evan Marsh) who turns to Turk (Williams), a self-proclaimed ‘wingman’ who helps men navigate the dating world despite often disastrous results, in a last-ditch effort to win back his ex-fiancée, Terri (Negar). The duo embark on a series of wild misadventures, with Turk’s extreme coaching tactics pushing Bob into increasingly unpredictable and outrageous situations.
The film had a live performance featuring Williams and Kennedy last night at the Royal Alexandra Theatre and is set for a screening at Toronto’s X Hotel Theatre tonight
The stills show Turk alongside his loyal assistant Holly (Wallace) and another of him at a mystery bar with Eddie (Kennedy), a rival wingman with other plans for Bob.
William, much-loved in his native Canada, is known for roles in Dumb and Dumber, Employee of the Month and Freddie Got Fingered. He is writing and directing, following his debut film, Fudgy Wudgy Fudge Face.
Justin L. Levine and Stardust Pictures are producing, with Lipper and Robert A. Daly Jr. from Latigo Films executive producers.
Deadline first told you about the film in December 2023, when it was known as Wing Man.
