Three years ago, the film now known as Fire Island was originally meant to be a series on Quibi. Luckily, it dodged that bullet, and it will now be a Searchlight-produced feature as a Hulu Original. Saturday Night Live Actors Joel Kim Booster and Bowen Yang co-direct the film as Noah and Howie, a pair of friends who seek love, romance and excitement in a famous vacation destination for gay men.
The film's first trailer briefly follows Noah and Howie through their regular lives before they go on a road trip together. If the plot glimpsed in the trailer sounds familiar to you, it's no coincidence. This is a modern, LGBT adaptation of Jane Austen Pride and Prejudice. And if Noah and Howie want to find a lasting connection, they'll have to deal with their own issues.
Hulu also released a synopsis for the film.
“Set in the iconic Pines, Andrew Ahn's Fire Island is a modern, unapologetic romantic comedy that features a diverse, multicultural examination of homosexuality and romance. Inspired by the timeless pursuits of Jane Austen's classic Pride and Prejudice, the story centers on two best friends (Joel Kim Booster and Bowen Yang) who embark on a legendary summer adventure with the help of cheap rosé and their eclectic group of friends. ”
Margaret Cho also stars in the film as Erin, with Conrad Ricamora as Will, James Scully as Charlie, Matt Rogers as Luke, Tomás Matos as Keegan, Torian Miller as Max, Nick Adams as Cooper, Zane Phillips as Dex, Michael Graceffa as Rhys , Aidan Wharton as Braden and Peter Smith as Moses.
Fire Island was directed by Ahn from a script by Booster. It will premiere on Hulu on June 3.
