Shoresy

Shoresy is a Canadian television comedy series, slated to premiere on Crave in Canada and in the United States on Hulu[1] in 2022.[2] A spinoff of Letterkenny, the series will focus on the titular character of Shoresy as he moves to Sudbury to take a role with a struggling Triple A-level hockey team, the Sudbury Bulldogs.[3]

Shoresy is played by Jared Keeso, but within Letterkenny he was only seen in contexts that obscured his face as Keeso simultaneously plays the leading role of Wayne.[4] Justin Stockman of Bell Media explained the decision to proceed with a Shoresy spinoff by noting that he is one of the most popular characters in Letterkenny merchandising, and acknowledging the creative potential involved in building on the story of a character about whom very little is known in the original show.[2]

In addition to Keeso, the cast of Shoresy is slated to include Tasya Teles, Harlan Blayne Kytwayhat, Blair Lamora, Keilani Rose, Jonathan-Ismael Diaby, Terry Ryan, Ryan McDonell, Max Bouffard, Andrew Antsanen, Jon Mirasty, Brandon Nolan, Jordan Nolan, Keegan Long and Bourke Cazabon, as well as guest appearances by Laurence Leboeuf, Scott Thompson, Jonathan Torrens, Jacob Tierney, Camille Sullivan, Eliana Jones, Kim Cloutier, Brian “Rear Admiral” McGonagle, Michala Brasseur and Lysandre Nadeau.[3]

Production on the series launched in November 2021 in Sudbury.[5] Production locations have included the Sudbury Arena.[6]

During the Letterkenny episode "VidVok" (S10E05), Tanis explains to Wayne that she got Shore on the Sudbury Bulldogs and will be moving soon. This episode effectively sets up the Shoresy series. The show's first teaser trailer was released to the internet in February 2022.[7] The series is slated to premiere May 13.[8]
