Oscar-nominated "Borat 2" actress Maria Bakalova and "Severance" actor Zach Cherry will star in Jason James' comedy film "All Night Wrong".
Screenwriter Jason Filiatro, Bakalova and Cherry take on the lead roles of Elle, a heartbroken widow, and Gary, a cowardly husband who meet on Tinder only to end up with a killer's car, a dead body and $40,000 in cash. In a series of bad choices and dangerous encounters, Elle and Gary's night turns into a chaotic journey filled with fights, mysteries, and life-changing consequences.
Pre-production will begin this fall in the Columbia Valley region of British Columbia.
"All Night Wrong is about two heartbroken individuals who meet online for all the wrong reasons, but end up discovering something about each other - and themselves - during one chaotic night. Maria and Zach are the dynamic duo we didn't know we needed. I can't wait to begin this journey with them," said James.
The film is a Canadian-British co-production. The Canadian team is led by Amber Ripley of Goodbye Productions, Jason James of Resonance Films and Richard Condal of Big Safari Productions for the UK. Sarah Shaak of Anamorphic Media is executive producer overseeing financing. Angela Demo is casting director and executive producer.
Bakalova is best known for her breakthrough performance in Sacha Baron Cohen's film Borat 2. | BGNES
