Get ready to dive into the wild world of comedy as we take you on a journey with none other than the hilarious and unpredictable Katt Williams! The outspoken and fearless comedian has never been one to shy away from controversy or push the envelope, and his latest project is no exception. In this exclusive article, we’re taking a deep dive into Katt Williams’ latest escapade, as he goes full throttle tripping out for Adam Rifkin’s unconventional comedy flick, ‘Toad’.
The Star-Studded Cast
Katt Williams is joining the cast of Adam Rifkin’s trippy road-trip comedy Toad, opposite James Paxton and Oliver Wyman. In the film, Williams will play Earl, a cigar-chomping, human-size anthropomorphic toad who may or may not be a figment of the boys’ imaginations.
Earl pops up at key points along their journey to give them unsolicited but much-needed advice and philosophical wisdom.
Craig Robinson to Play Terrifying Crime Boss, Charles
Rounding out the cast is Craig Robinson, who will play terrifying crime boss Charles.
Adam Rifkin’s Vision
“Toad” follows two dudes who are hired by Charles to transport a box of contraband psychedelic toads from L.A. to Vegas.
When the soaring desert temperatures cause the toads to suffer heatstroke, the two imbeciles are inadvertently dosed when they give the toads CPR and suddenly find themselves on a hallucinogenic odyssey.
Says Rifkin: “Katt Williams is not only the funniest man on the planet, he’s a latter-day prophet with a voice that resonates across generations. His ability to channel raw truth, humor, and humanity is unparalleled, and I believe his performance will be nothing short of transformative.”
Considering Earl is the oracle of our story, I can’t think of a more perfect actor to portray him than Katt, a real-life prophet who walks among us.
Industry Reactions
Brad Wyman, producer of the film, says: “Katt Williams is my hero. I raised my two sons on Katt’s comedy. I’m never star struck and I’m never speechless, but when I met Katt, I could barely form a sentence. I’m still pinching myself that Katt Williams is going to be in our film.”
David Fuhrer, President of the Laugh Factory, adds: “We couldn’t be more thrilled to have Katt Williams, one of the most brilliant and fearless voices in comedy joining our first feature film, Toad. This film represents everything the Laugh Factory stands for: bold, boundary-pushing humor that connects people through laughter. Partnering with Adam Rifkin and this incredible cast allows us to showcase not just comedy’s power to entertain, but its ability to tell outrageous, unforgettable stories.”
