“Hey, I’m Jon. What’s up?” Sony Pictures Classics has unveiled the full official trailer for the totally bonkers all-out comedy Gail Daughtry and the Celebrity Sex Pass, the latest creation from Wet Hot American Summer director David Wain. This actually premiered at the 2026 Sundance Film Festival earlier this year. It’s one of the dumbest movies I’ve ever seen, but that’s also the entire point (so dumb it’s fun), following this young woman on a wacky adventure around Los Angeles. When her fiancé uses their “celebrity pass” agreement to sleep with his fave celeb, small town bride Gail Daughtry travels to Hollywood seeking revenge by pursuing her own celebrity encounter. Her goal: to find and sleep with Jon Hamm. Off she goes, joining forces with a talent agency assistant, a paparazzo, and actor John Slattery, all in the search of this actor. Zoey Deutch stars as Gail, along with Jon Hamm (of course), John Slattery, Ken Marino, Miles Gutierrez-Riley, Ben Wang, Joe Lo Truglio, and Sabrina Impacciatore. Plus Mather Zickel, Tobie Windham, Matthew Jayson Cwern, Thomas Lennon, Kerri Kenney-Silver, Zac Oyama, and “Weird Al”, too. Get ready for the ride of your life… and maybe journey too. Hitting theaters in July this summer. Have fun.
Here’s the trailers for David Wain’s comedy Gail Daughtry and the Celebrity Sex Pass, on YouTube:
Small town hairdresser Gail Daughtry (Zoey Deutch) is engaged to her devoted high school sweetheart. Her life takes a turn when Tom ends up meeting, and sleeping, with his “celebrity pass.” Gail impulsively joins her friend Otto on a trip to Los Angeles, where a psychic convinces Gail the only way to save her marriage is to “even the scales” with her own celebrity pass: Jon Hamm. Thus begins an epic journey into Tinseltown as Gail & Otto join forces with a talent agency assistant, a paparazzo, and actor John Slattery, all in the search for Hamm. Along the way, they collide with celebrities and are hunted by a group of assassins as they get ever closer to finding the elusive star. Gail Daughtry and the Celebrity Sex Pass is directed by American comedy filmmaker David Wain, director of the movies Wet Hot American Summer, The Ten, Role Models, Wanderlust, They Came Together, Old Soul, the doc A Futile & Stupid Gesture, plus lots of TV including “Miracle Workers” & “Mr. Throwback” recently. The screenplay is by Ken Marino and David Wain. Produced by Anthony Bregman, Peter Cron, Ken Marino, David Wain, Crystine Zhang, Charles Zhong. This first premiered at the 2026 Sundance Film Festival earlier this year. SPC debuts Gail Daughtry and the Celebrity Sex Pass in US theaters starting on July 10th, 2026 this summer.
