Wet Hot American Summer Is Back: A New Trailer and Everything We Know About ... - Daily Beast

The director of the movie, David Wain ( Role Models ), is staying on as director of the show, based on a script he co-wrote with his co-writer on the film’s screenplay, Michael Showalter. Favorite moments include falling space junk , gurnals, Christopher Meloni’s insane camp chef and his talking can (voiced by Archer’s H. Jon Benjamin), and lots and lots and lots of Paul Rudd awkwardly making out. Every single one of the stars from the original movie is back, including Bradley Cooper, Elizabeth Banks, Amy Poehler, Janeane Garofalo, Christopher Meloni, Michael Ian Black, and Paul Rudd. Of course, they are all 14 years older now and, seeing as the show is meant to be set earlier than the movie (on the first day of camp instead of the last), we can all get excited for an extra layer of absurdity on top of the already fairly absurd... They were all 10 years too old to be playing teen camp counselors in the original, and now they’re 24 years too old. Source: www.thedailybeast.com
