Hulu shares trailer for Jake Johnson’s directorial debut Self Reliance

December 5, 2023 by Amie Cranswick

Hulu has released a trailer and images for Self Reliance, the feature length directorial debut for writer-director Jake Johnson.

The comedy thriller stars Johnson as a middle-aged man living a dull life until Andy  Samberg invites him to take a ride in his limo which leads to him being offered the chance to participate in a dark web reality show with a prize of a million dollars that will see him attempt to avoid being killed by assassins from across the globe for 30 days.

 

When a middle-aged man (Jake Johnson, “New Girl”) is invited into a limo by famous actor Andy Samberg, his dull life takes a thrilling turn. Johnson is offered a chance to win a million dollars in a dark web reality TV show, where assassins from all over the world attempt to kill him for 30 days. The catch? He can’t be killed if he’s not entirely alone, leading him to recruit an unlikely team to help him survive.

The film stars Jake Johnson, Anna Kendrick, Natalie Morales, Andy Samberg, GaTa, Emily Hampshire, Mary Holland, Boban Marjanović, Christopher Lloyd, and Wayne Brady. 

Self Reliance is set for release on January 12th.
