3. Wet Hot American Summer: First Day Of Camp
It has been 14 years since the film Wet Hot American Summer was released, not getting a lot of attention at the time but developing a cult following since then. Its most famous, though, for helping to launch a number of current Hollywood stars, including Paul Rudd, Amy Poehler, Elizabeth Banks, and Bradley Cooper. Now it is being brought back by Netflix in the form of a TV series, and all of the now A-list cast are set to return with it. While the film took place on the last day of summer camp in 1981, the show will, as the title suggests, focus on the first day. Its a good job theyve all aged really well. Jon Hamm, Kristen Wiig, Chris Pine and Jason Schwartzman are among the new additions to the cast, because obviously it wasnt star-studded already, and it basically looks like its going to be all of these actors having a lot of fun over the course of the eight episode season.
