“This can’t be happening, this can’t be real.” Sony Pictures has posted an official trailer for a zany comedy series called Stags, created by Daniel Cullen. This originally premiered last year in the UK on Paramount+. It’s now available to watch streaming in the US exclusively on the PlayStation Plus network in Sony Pictures Core. Stags is actually a 6-episode series (not a movie!) that follows groom-to-be Stu and his friends on his stag do trip down to South America. One review calls it “the exhilarating, gorgeous tale of eight idiots.” Ha. Stu’s stag do in South America goes bad when Greg collapses at customs and is found to be full of cocaine. Arrested, the group are taken to an island prison run by cocaine-smuggling siblings, Selma & Branco. Things go from very bad to much worse… Starring Nico Mirallegro, Charlie Cooper, Asim Chaudry, Corin Silva, Sophie Lenglinger, Paul Forman, Jojo Macari, Cavan Clerkin, Paulina Gálvez, and Oscar Foronda. This was filmed mostly on the Canary Islands, far from South America, but hey it works well for the prison set anyway. This looks like The Hangover kind of bonkers fun – if you’re into this kind of comedy.

Here’s the new official trailer (+ poster) for Daniel Cullen’s comedy series Stags, direct from YouTube:

Stags follows groom-to-be Stu and his friends on his stag party in South America. What was meant to be a week of drink, drugs, and fun turns dark as airport security discovers that one of the stags is smuggling cocaine. Instead of boarding a plane, the group is thrown into a notorious and depraved prison island run by two warring, drug-dealing siblings and it becomes clear that the stags need to pick a side if they have any chance of survival. Friendships are tested & life-long loyalty is sacrificed as they begin to question: who will make it home? Stags is a series created by writer Daniel Cullen (also of “Temple”, “Bad Sisters”, “Breeders”). With writing by Daniel Cullen, Melissa Bubnic, D.C. Jackson, Rob Hayes. And with episodes directed by David Kerr and Giancarlo Sanchez. Made by Eleven Film (a part of Sony Pictures Television). Executive produced by Joel Wilson, Olivia Trench, and Carissa Hope Lynch. The series is now available on PlayStation Plus – streaming until March 24th. It was previously released on Paramount+. Want to watch?
