Look, a late-breaking conversation starter to deploy at your innumerable Memorial Day weekend bbqs: Wet Hot American Summer, everyone's favorite summer camp comedy featuring Janeane Garofalo and some heroin usage, may be turned into a 10-episode Netflix series. Rejoice!
From Variety:
Executive produced by the movie’s creators, David Wain and Michael Showalter, the serialized “Hot” would seek to reunite many of the original cast members who would play high-school-age characters despite the fact many of the actors are currently in their 40s.
While it might seem a tall order to reunite the original cast, the plan is to make it happen by having each of the actors shoot their scenes in just a few days because not every character will appear in every episode. The original cast included Paul Rudd, Bradley Cooper, Amy Poeher, Elizabeth Banks, Ken Marino, Molly Shannon, Christopher Meloni, Janeane Garofalo, David Hyde Pierce, Michael Ian Black, Joe Lo Truglio and Showalter. Wain also directed the movie.
Netflix declined to comment on the possible Good News, probably 'cause they got...they just don't have time right now.
