KUMAIL NANJIANI AND JULIETTE LEWIS STAR IN NEW CHIPPENDALES DOC SERIES
Written by Ballzer on October 21, 2022
If you like Magic Mike, you probably have Mr. Banerjee to thank. But it wasn’t all a good time…
Kumail Nanjiani stars in the limited series as Somen “Steve” Banerjee who becomes the unlikely founder of a male revue that becomes a cultural phenomenon. Hulu’s “Welcome to Chippendales” is inspired by the true story, and looks pretty intense. I mean, Vegas, drugs, half-naked dudes, murder, and racketeering to name a few things in this story. Plus, Juliette Lewis and The White Lotus’s Murray Bartlett are in it, and there’s tons of great 80s outfits, so I’m marking my calendar for November 22.
