TORONTO -- Henry Winkler and DJ Qualls ("CSI") have jumped on board "Running Mates," the Canadian theatrical comedy from actor and director Thomas Michael.

The Canuck film, from Buck Productions and Fella Films, also stars Michael as Archie Fenton, an ambitious young man who returns to his small town roots to run for mayor against his childhood friend Reg, played by Paolo Mancini.

Winkler plays the incumbent mayor Weatherbee in the fictional town of Shoulder, while Qualls plays a local boy who suffered a tragic accident that left him with the nickname "One Ball."

Also starring in "Running Mates" is Jane McLean ("24," "Dexter") as Fenton's wife, and Mike Beaver, who plays Reg's brother.

Principato Young, which packaged the Canadian feature, represents Michael, Winkler and DJ Qualls.

"Running Mates" is shooting in Burk's Fall, Ontario to the end of October.

Henry has had a lot of great little roles and guest spots on various shows and movies over the years - I even loved him as somewhat of a bad guy on NUMB3RS !!!

My favorite Role of Henry is Stewart in "Out of Practice". Great and Funny. The Show and him.

Besides HD, I remember him as the principle I think he was, or the janitor in Scream I, the coach in Water Boy & in Click as well. It's great that he's getting roles still. I am happy for him.
