Shazad Latif
How do you find lasting love in today's world? For documentary-maker and dating app addict Zoe (Lily James), swiping right has only delivered an endless stream of Mr Wrongs, to her eccentric mother Cath's (Emma Thompson) dismay. For Zoe's childhood friend and neighbour Kaz (Shazad Latif), the answer is to follow his parents' example and opt for an arranged (or "assisted") marriage to a bright and beautiful bride from Pakistan. As Zoe films his hopeful journey from London to Lahore to marry a stranger, chosen by his parents, she begins to wonder if she might have something to learn from a profoundly different approach to finding love.

  • Trivia
    While filming Star Trek: Discovery (2017), it was important that Latif not be credited for playing the character of Voq, as the fact that Voq and the other Latif's character Ash Tyler were the same person was an important plot twist. When Latif was approached by the show runners and asked to choose a pseudonym Voq would be credited under, he chose Javid Iqbal, which was the name of his late father.
