Wingman Launches With International Premiere Ahead Of U.s Rollout
Australian audiences were first in the world to see the new comedy Wingman, with the film launching through distributor Bounty Entertainment ahead of its international rollout across the United States, Canada and United Kingdom.
Opening in select cinemas in Australia first, the release was led by a special screening event at Sydney’s Ritz Cinemas which hosted the film’s first public screening worldwide. The launch brought together industry guests, filmmakers and audiences as Australia became the first territory to officially release the feature as part of its international global rollout.
The premiere screening was led by Los Angeles-based Australian James Pratt who worked in a producing capacity on the film and flew back to Sydney to represent the production on the Australian release. “It’s such a funny film, this type of comedy is rare these days so getting to launch first back home in Australia was extra special,” said Pratt.
Directed by legendary comedian and actor Harland Williams (Dumb and Dumber), Wingman stars Williams alongside Jamie Kennedy (Scream), Kayla Wallace (Landman), Russell Peters (Chef), Evan Marsh (Chef), Shiva Negar (American Assassin) and David Lipper (Full House) in a comedy centred on a struggling bachelor whose life spirals into chaos after hiring an eccentric self-proclaimed dating expert to win back his ex. Justin L Levine (Life Happens) and Stardust Pictures produced the film along with David Lipper, Robert J Daly and Pratt. Williams wrote the screenplay from a story by Levine and Carly Granovsky was casting director.
Following the Australian theatrical launch, Wingman moves into its UK and rollout U.S via Apple TV+
