Kumail Nanjiani to play an Uber driver in upcoming action comedy

Author:

After bagging an Oscar nomination for his original screenplay for The Big Sick, the comedian/actor, Kumail Nanjiani, is all set to star opposite Dave Bautista in an action comedy from Fox called ‘Stuber’.

Nanjiani will be playing a mild-mannered Uber driver named Stu, who picks up a grizzled cop (Bautista) who is hot on the trail of a brutal killer. He then finds himself enveloped into a harrowing ordeal where he has to keep a balance between his wits, his life, and his five-star rating.

The feature will be directed by Michael Dowse and is being produced by Jonathon Goldstein and John Francis Daley.

According to Tracking Board, Nanjiani is also currently in negotiations to star in ‘The True American’ alongside Mark Ruffalo, which is a post 9/11 drama.
