Deception is a 2008 drama-romance-thriller film directed by Marcel Langenegger, written by Mark Bomback, and starring Ewan McGregor, Hugh Jackman and Michelle Williams. It was released on April 25, 2008 in the United States. The movie begins with accountant Jonathan McQuarry (Ewan McGregor) working late in a boardroom, when he’s interrupted by Wyatt Bose (Hugh Jackman). They chat and smoke pot for a bit. Jonathan takes the subway home, and notices a beautiful blonde next to him waiting for the train. He watches her from across the train and attempts to leave at the same stop, but doesn’t make it out in time. He returns to his apartment, where he notices a pipe in his bedroom leaking and leaving a water stain (important later).
He finishes his work with the company and attempts to get in touch with Wyatt by asking a secretary to page him. Wyatt appears and invites Jonathan to play tennis with him the next day.
