Hulu released the first official teaser from its upcoming Letterkenny spinoff series, Shoresy, and a list of the series' impressive cast.
Created, written by and starring Jared Keeso, Shoresy Season 1 is set to debut on Hulu in Spring 2022. The first look image and teaser trailer for the spinoff unmasked the infamous #69, with Keeso reprising the role that originated on Letterkenny. While the spinoff marks the first time audiences will see the character's face on screen, Shoresy will also feature a large cast of absolute legends and certified beauticians.
Shot on location in Sudbury, the hockey comedy series sees Keeso in the title role, alongside Tasya Teles (The 100) as Nat, Harlan Blayne Kytwayhat (Tribal) as Sanguinet, Blair Lamora (Paranormal Nightshift) as Ziigwan and Keilani Rose (Flimsy) as Miigwan. Rounding out the cast are real-life hockey players and Canadian all-stars, including rapper Jonathan-Ismael Diaby as Dolo; former Montréal Canadien, author, and actor Terry Ryan as Hitch; Ryan McDonell (The Crossing) as Michaels; Max Bouffard (Letterkenny) as JJ Frankie JJ; former Kahnawake Condor and MMA fighter Andrew "The Canon" Antsanen as Goody; legendary all-time tough guy Jon "Nasty" Mirasty, former 'Canes center Brandon Nolan and three time Stanley Cup winner, Jordan Nolan star as Jim, Jim, and Jim, respectively; Listowel's Keegan Long as Liam and North Bay's Bourke Cazabon as Cory.
Shoresy features guest stars Laurence Leboeuf (Transplant), Scott Thompson (Kids in the Hall), Jonathan Torrens (Trailer Park Boys), Camille Sullivan (Trigger Me), Eliana Jones (Northern Rescue), Michala Brasseur (Grand Army, The Handmaid's Tale) and social media star Lysandre Nadeau. Keeso's fellow Letterkenny castmates, Jacob Tierney and Kim Cloutier, will appear as guest stars as well.
Shoresy will consist of six, half-hour episodes and, according to Hulu, will see "the foul-mouthed, chirp-serving, mother-loving, fan-favorite character, Shoresy, join a senior AAA hockey team in Sudbury on a quest to never lose again." When Shoresy was first announced, it was unclear if Keeso would reprise his role for the spinoff, but the teaser and first look image proved that to be true. The Hulu Original series is the first full-length spinoff of the Canadian sitcom, Letterkenny, created by Keeso, who also stars in the series as Wayne. Letterkenny recently premiered its 10th season on Hulu.
Letterkenny first began as Letterkenny Problems in 2013, a series of skits on YouTube featuring Keeso's Wayne and Nathan Dales' Daryl telling stories about the fictional, rural town of Letterkenny. The series was picked up by the Canadian network Crave in 2016, where it became a cult hit. Hulu landed the streaming rights for the series in 2018, causing Letterkenny's popularity to take off in the United States.
Shorey will premiere on Hulu in 2022. All 10 seasons of Letterkenny are available on Hulu.
