Nick Stahl is an identity thief in over his head in What You Wish For trailer

April 20, 2024 by Amie Cranswick

Magnolia Pictures and Magnet Releasing have shared a poster and trailer for What You Wish For, the suspense-thriller from writer-director Nicholas Tomnay.

Nick Stahl stars as Ryan, a down-on-his-luck chef with gambling problems who flees to flees to his friends Latin American villa, but in a grim twist of fate Ryan is able to assume the identity of his friend, giving him the lavish lifestyle he has desperately craved. Watch the trailer below…

Ryan (Nick Stahl) is a talented, down-on-his-luck chef with crushing gambling problems. Circumstances being what they are, he leaves town in a hurry for the safe haven of an unnamed Latin American country where his friend Jack (Brian Groh), a more prestigious chef with his own unique troubles, welcomes him into his home. Ryan has no idea how Jack’s able to afford his extravagant lifestyle cooking for the elite in paradise; he doesn’t want to feel envious, yet he can’t help but want this life for himself as well. Soon, a grim twist of fate will give that to him. Ryan assumes his friend’s identity and soon discovers just what Jack’s been doing to maintain the lifestyle he so desperately craved.

The film stars Nick Stahl, Tamsin Topolski, Randy Vasquez, Penelope Mitchell, Juan Carlos Messier, and Brian Groh.

What You Wish For arrives in cinemas and on VOD on May 31st.
