Everything to know about the new Hulu comedy, "Summer of 69."
In the new film, per the log line, "an awkward high school senior hires an exotic dancer to help seduce her longtime crush before graduation, leading to unexpected friendship and lessons in self-confidence, acceptance, and adulthood."
Summer of 69 is written by Bell, Liz Nico, & Jules Byrne and comes from American High, the same production company that brought similar young adult movies & Hulu originals Big Time Adolescence & The Binge.
When first sharing the news with Deadline about making her directorial debut for the new film, Bell said, “It’s always been my dream to direct and I am thrilled to be telling a story about female friendship with a cast of the most talented and funny humans.”
The new film is set to begin production later this month in Syracuse this month. With this great caliber of comedians & talent involved, we're excited to hear more from this movie when it hits Hulu likely sometime next year!
