Taron Egerton will star in comedy thriller Everybody Wants to F*ck Me, co-starring Jessica Henwick and co-produced by StudioCanal, Film4, Parkville Pictures and Margot Robbie’s LuckyChap.

Jonathan Schey, best known for directing the first two series of Ladhood, directs from his own screenplay; the film marks his feature debut. Film4 developed the script.

Set in London against the backdrop of modern dating, the film will begin production in the capital next month. Kharmel Cochrane is the casting director on board; Cecilia Frugiuele and Olivier Kaempfer produce for Parkville Pictures.

StudioCanal and Film4 are fully financing the feature. Ron Halpern, Joe Naftalin and Isobel Carter will oversee for StudioCanal, working alongside Farhana Bhula and David Kimbangi for Film4.

StudioCanal will launch worldwide sales at AFM, releasing theatrically in their territories of the UK, France, Germany, Australia, New Zealand, Benelux & Poland.

Halpern and Naftalin said of the project: “We were blown away by Jonathan’s thrilling and subversive vision for this film.

“We are excited to be working with Taron in the lead role, and the amazing teams Jonathan, Parkville and LuckyChap have assembled. Along with our partners at Film4, we can’t wait to bring this special project to cinema audiences around the world next year!”
