Director Michael Dowse’s new movie, Stuber, stars Dave Bautista, Kumail Nanjiani, and St-Viateur Bagel.
Sort of.
The Onatrio-born, Montreal-raised director has given the city’s most recognized bagel shop some serious shout-outs in his new buddy-cop comedy.

The film follows Dave Bautista’s tough guy Vic Manning, a detective who recruits his gentle Uber driver (Silicon Valley’s Kumail Nanjiani) for an unexpected night of dangerous adventures.
Nanjiani’s Stu, (Uber…Stu… Stuber, get it?) can be seen wearing a blue St-Viateur Bagel tee throughout much of the film, including the shop’s iconic bagel man logo.
