So here we are on the last day of this film Playdate for me…there’s a few days left for everybody else. I gotta get back to Reacher….finishing up season 3. Gotta a couple more months of that. Going to be a brutal . That show’s tough to make.
Alan Ritchson is finishing up his role in Dads action comedy Playdate in Vancouver and headed back to Toronto to resume production on season 3 of his hit series Reacher.
It looks his family had fun play fighting on the Playdate set out in the Fraser Valley.
What is Playdate?
Playdate follows down-on-his-luck Brian (Kevin James), who was just fired from his job and becomes an unexpected stay-at-home dad to his 10-year-old son. On his first day, he accepts a playdate invitation from Jeff (Alan Ritchson), another stay-at-home Dad, who turns out to be an unexpected loose cannon. The two fathers and their sons spend the day on the run, facing a deadly conspiracy.
Kevin James and other cast are still in town to wrap up the movie.
Update:
Kevin James hypes up the crowd on Sunday night at the Vancouver Canucks’ first playoff game against the Nashville Predators. The Canucks won 4-2.
