Too Opinionated Interview: Farid Yazdani

Absurdist new comedy digital series DAY PLAYERS following the delusional world of struggling actors made its highly anticipated world premiere on Image Killer’s YouTube channel on February 7th, 2025

Created by Reelworld Film Festival Trailblazer Award winner Farid Yazdani (MOONSHINE/SUITS), directed by Aref Mahabadi (BECAUSE ONE DAY), and written by Chris D’Alessandro, DAY PLAYERS is a six-episode absurdist comedy that dives headfirst into the chaotic, delusional, and hilariously awkward world of struggling actors.

Each episode centers around a different acting class assignment, from cringe-worthy studies of the “world’s greatest Canadian actor” to producing an unwatchable short film, and even a case of murder through what can only be described as “criminal negligence.” The series delivers laughs for anyone who has ever stepped into an acting class and secretly wondered if they should have stayed in business school.

The stellar cast includes Farid Yazdani, Patrick McKenna (THE RED GREEN SHOW), Brock Morgan (THE GOOD DOCTOR, WORKIN’ MOMS), two-time Juno Award nominee Alex Bird, Nicolette Pearse (TRANSPLANT, KIM’S CONVENIENCE), Canadian Screen Awards winner Aisha Evelyna (THE DROP, SLO PITCH), and Canadian Screen Awards nominee Ashley Leggat (LIFE WITH DEREK).
