‘Fire Island’ Trailer: ‘Pride and Prejudice’ Goes Gay With Joel Kim Booster and Bowen Yang
25.04.2022 - 17:29 / variety.com
Wilson Chapman editorHulu has released the first trailer for the new queer rom-com “Fire Island,” starring Joel Kim Booster and “Saturday Night Live” star Bowen Yang.A modern take on the classic Jane Austen novel “Pride and Prejudice,” “Fire Island” focuses on two gay best friends, Noah (Booster) and Howie (Yang), who take a trip to the Pines, a hamlet on New York’s Fire Island that’s a hotspot for queer culture. Over the course of their vacation, they party with friends and develop flirtations with two other, significantly wealthier vacationers, Will (Conrad Ricamora) and Charlie (James Scully).
The film also features Yang’s longtime “Las Culturistas” podcast co-host Matt Rogers, Margaret Cho, Nick Adams, Tomás Matos and Torian Miller in supporting roles. Variety broke the news of the film in June last year.
Booster wrote the script for the film, which is directed by Andrew Ahn, the filmmaker behind critically acclaimed indie films “Spa Night” and “Driveways.” Booster also executive produces the film, with Tony Hernandez, John Hodges and Brooke Posch producing for JAX. The film is distributed by Searchlight Pictures.
In addition to releasing on Hulu domestically, “Fire Island” will be available on Disney Plus’ Star brand globally.In an interview with Vanity Fair, Booster revealed that the genesis behind a “Pride and Prejudice” story set on the shores of Fire Island stemmed from a trip he took to the Pines with Yang where he brought Austen’s novel with him. After shelving the idea for years, Booster initially developed it as a short form series for the now defunct streaming mobile platform Quibi.

Who Will Play Kim Kardashian in Pete Davidson's New TV Show?
SNL star and stand-up comedian is going to write and act in a new series based on his life, and it's already got a straight-to-series order at Peacock. (In other words, it's for sure happening). The series is called Bupkis (a Yiddish word meaning “nothing”), and is described in a press release as “a heightened, fictionalized version of Pete Davidson’s real life. The series will combine grounded storytelling with absurd elements from the unfiltered and completely original worldview for which Pete is well known.”Many are familiar with Davidson's story, which was the (loose) inspiration for Judd Apatow's The King Of Staten Island, which Davidson starred in.
