Another You (1991) watch online

Another You is a 1991 American comedy film directed by Maurice Phillips and written and produced by Ziggy Steinberg. The film stars Richard Pryor, Gene Wilder, Mercedes Ruehl, Stephen Lang, and Vanessa Williams. It follows con man Eddie Dash (Pryor) and former pathological liar George (Wilder), who become entangled in a scheme to pass the latter off as the missing heir to a brewery fortune.

Production was troubled, with original director Peter Bogdanovich replaced during filming after his footage was deemed unusable, and a shift in shooting locations from New York City to Los Angeles led to the film being rewritten for the new setting. Pryor described the shoot as a negative experience.

Released on July 26, 1991, by Tri-Star Pictures, Another You was a critical and commercial failure, grossing approximately $2.9 million against a reported $17 million budget. Reviews were negative, describing the film as lacking any comedic entertainment, with even the combined talents of Pryor and Wilder unable to save it. The film marked the fourth and final screen pairing of Pryor and Wilder following their popular collaborations on Silver Streak (1976), Stir Crazy (1980), and See No Evil, Hear No Evil (1989). It was Wilder's final appearance in a theatrical film and was also the last major acting role for Pryor, who had been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis shortly before filming began.
