Malin Akerman and Tyler Labine are co-starring in the Canadian indie pic Cottage Country from director Peter Wellington and Whizbang Films.
The dark comedy has Todd, played by Labine, eyeing perfection at the family cottage where he plans to propose to Cammie (Akerman). But best-laid plans come undone when Todd’s slacker brother, played by Daniel Petronijevic, arrives with his free-spirited girlfriend in a role performed by Lucy Punch.
Cottage Country marks a return to feature filmmaking for Wellington, an accomplished Canadian TV director who has ABC’s Rookie Blue, Queer As Folk and The Eleventh Hour among his credits. The theatrical feature is shooting in Toronto and Muskoka, Ontario through October 27, ahead of a 2012 release by Alliance Films.
Cottage Country was written by Jeremy Boxen (Lost Girl, Endgame) and is produced by Frank Siracusa, who also executive produces with Paul Gross. The project also marks a first-time movie collaboration between Siracusa and Whizbang Films.
Siracusa previously produced features like the First World War drama Passchendaele and Hobo With a Shotgun with rival producer Rhombus Media, and more recently worked with Bollywood producer Ajay Virmani and Canadian producer Don Carmody on the Indo-Canadian comedy Breakaway, which co-stars Rob Lowe.
Luc Montpellier is the DOP on Cottage Country, with production design by Phillip Barker and editing by Christopher Donaldson.
Casting was done by Libby Goldstein in Los Angeles and Lisa Parasyn Casting in Toronto.

Malin Akerman glowed on the red carpet last night to celebrate the Missoni for Target pop-up store launch in NYC, and she had some kind words for two of her co-stars who are also looking radiant these days — effervescent lovebirds Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux, who star in Wanderlust alongside Malin. “I’m so excited, I can’t wait to see it!” Malin told reporters of her upcoming flick.
Fans are excited because that’s where Jen found love. “I know!” gushed Malin about the scene of the romance being on set.
So what was it like to watch the twosome fall in love?
“At that point we were just friends,” explained Malin. “That all happened after the fact because he was with someone at the moment. There was a lot of respect happening. I guess it was sort of like being at a commune. We all were living together. Every weekend we would hang out. Karaoke together,” she revealed.
Does Malin think it will work out?
“I don’t know,” she admitted, adding, “They’re both lovely people so I’m really happy for them. I think it’s great. Its always fun when people find love. You’re always happy for people who are in love.”
