Arnold Schwarzenegger will star as Gunther, with Cobie Smulders, Bobby Moynihan, Paul Brittain, Kumail Nanjiani, Randall Park and Ryan Gaul cast as well, and filming is expected to begin in June 2016.[1][2] Tatiana Maslany was in negotiations to star in the film but due to scheduling conflicts declined the role.[3]

Filming began in Vancouver, British Columbia in July 2016.[4] In August 2016, Killam was let go from his Saturday Night Live contract due to his filming of We're Killing Gunther as filming would have conflicted with his appearances on Saturday Night Live.[5]
