Actor Pierson Fode, best known for romantic comedy "Naomi and Ely's No Kiss List", has landed a role in the upcoming movie "Man From Toronto".
According to Deadline, he joins the action-comedy, which already has Kevin Hart, Woody Harrelson, and Kaley Cuoco on board.
Patrick Hughes, best known for "The Expendables 3" and "The Hitman's Bodyguard", will direct the movie from a script by Robbie Fox and Chris Bremner.
Fox developed the idea in collaboration with filmmaker Jason Blumenthal.
The story follows a case of a mistaken identity as one of the world's deadliest assassin, known as the 'Man from Toronto', and a New York City screw-up named Teddy run into each other at an Airbnb. A clash of personalities, and a clash with deadly killers, ensues.
Blumenthal will also produce the movie alongside Todd Black and Steve Tisch. Bill Bannerman will serve as executive producer.
