LINCOLN SQUARE — "Win It All," the latest feature from filmmaker Joe Swanberg, is set to debut on Netflix in April, and the movie's locations will look very familiar to residents of Lincoln Square and North Center.
In a recently released trailer for the film, starring frequent Swanberg collaborator Jake Johnson, settings including the Welles Park gazebo are prominently featured. In summer 2015, the production was also spotted shooting scenes at Baker Miller and O'Lanagan's Pub, which can be seen in the trailer.
Swanberg's Netflix series "Easy" similarly made heavy use of locations in Lincoln Square, where the director, perhaps best known for "Drinking Buddies," makes his home.
"Win It All" premieres on Netflix April 7, but hit the big screen last weekend at the South by Southwest Conference & Festivals in Austin, Texas.
Johnson, who co-wrote the movie with Swanberg, plays Eddie, a 30-something gambler trying to pull his life together, with varying results. Keegan-Michael Key has a supporting role as Eddie's Gamblers Anonymous sponsor.
Early reviews have been positive, with the Hollywood Reporter calling "Win It All" the "most convincing" of Swanberg and Johnson's joint efforts.
