Zoey Deutch stars as a hairdresser on a quest to sleep with her celebrity sex pass: Jon Hamm. A new crack-up from the creators of Wet Hot American Summer, featuring John Slattery (Mad Men), Joe Lo Truglio (Brooklyn Nine-Nine) and Sabrina Impacciatore (White Lotus).

Small-town sweetheart Gail Daughtry (Deutch) has the most perfect, humble life she could wish for. With their wedding coming up, Gail and her fiancée, Tom (Michael Cassidy), jokingly establish their celebrity sex passes – the one celebrity each can sleep with in wedlock. But when Tom actually sleeps with his, Gail has to get even by sleeping with her dreamboat: Jon Hamm of Mad Men fame. With bestie Otto (Miles Gutierrez-Riley) in tow, the wide-eyed pair go on an epic and zany escapade across Los Angeles, unaware they've made enemies with dangerous mobsters along the way. Cameos are aplenty in this loony farce, including John Slattery, Joe Lo Truglio and Sabrina Impacciatore (White Lotus), just to name a few!

“Alternat[es] between wholesomeness and vulgarity with such mastery that you’ll barely have time to catch your breath before you’re ready to start laughing again.”

Christian Zilko, IndieWire

“Jam-packed with gags that run the gamut from naughty to corny to crackpot insane, the whole thing laced with David Wain’s flaky surreal dunked-in-media sensibility.”

Owen Gleiberman, Variety

“Deutch nails every joke in this slapstick comedy that keeps the out-of-pocket zingers coming nonstop, complimented perfectly by her crew of Yellow Brick Road (Hollywood Boulevard) nomads”
