Your (St)Uber is Here!
16 September
2020, Mumbai: Imagine a mild-mannered Uber driver and a jacked-up cop trying to take
down a highly trained killer, sound ridiculous doesn’t it? Well, Stuber has been just about that!The action comedy premieresfor the first time on
television on Star Movies on September 20th at 12 pm and 9 pm.
Popular wrestling superstar turned
Marvel superheroDave Bautista stars
as the grizzly LAPD Detective Vic
Manning. The wrestler turned actor is known for his scene-stealing
performances in Guardians Of The Galaxy, Escape Plan 2, and
Avengers: Infinity Wars to name a few.The scanty Stu Prasad is portrayedby hilarious comedian and actor Kumail Nanjiani. Another cast member
includes actress Karen Gillan, who
portrays the rookie cop Sara Morris.
The story follows a meager Uber driver, StuPrasad who is obsessed with getting
his first five-star review in the app. He isforced by an aggressive Los Angeles Police Department detective Vic Manning to drive him around town to
catch notorious drug lord Oka Tedjo.
The film is a hilarious entry in the buddy cop genre with issues such as toxic
masculinity being addressed in a very mature manner.
Regarding the role, actor Kumail Nanjiani
stated, “I really wanted to do this movie, and that was something I
thought a lot about. In Big Sick, he’s an Uber driver, but it’s not really
integral to the story. Whereas in Stuber, that is pretty tied in to the story.”
“Now I am only going to do movies where
I’m an Uber driver” said Nanjiani jokingly.
