Hulu Drops Raunchy and Relatable Trailer for Teen Comedy Summer of 69

Hulu has released the first trailer for Summer of 69, a bold, irreverent high school comedy set to premiere just in time for the summer movie season. Directed by Jillian Bell—who also co-wrote the screenplay alongside Jules Byrne and Liz Nico—the film blends outrageous humor with the awkward realities of teenage desire, giving classic coming-of-age tropes a wild, modern twist. The trailer teases a fast-paced final week of high school where crushes, confessions, and chaos collide.

 

Chloe Fineman stars as Abby Flores, an offbeat, introverted teen whose idea of risk-taking typically involves playing video games or overanalyzing her unrequited love for Max Warren. But when word gets out that Max is newly single with just days left in the school year, Abby snaps into action—determined to transform herself from wallflower to girlfriend material in under a week. Her confidant? The school mascot. Her plan? Let’s just say it involves learning a lot more than she ever expected—thanks to a stripper named Santa Monica.

 

The cast is stacked with comedic talent including Sam Morelos, Matt Cornett, Nicole Byer, Liza Koshy, Natalie Morales, and Charlie Day, along with scene-stealing turns by Paula Pell and Alex Moffat. The film promises the type of heart and hilarity found in teen comedies like Superbad or Booksmart, but with a refreshingly female-forward lens and a fearless embrace of sexual awkwardness. Fineman’s brand of deadpan charm and chaotic confidence gives Abby the perfect mix of cringe and charisma.

 

Summer of 69 hits Hulu on May 9, 2025, and looks set to become a go-to summer comedy for Gen Z and anyone who remembers the desperation of teenage love. With its sharp script, unapologetic humor, and emotional undercurrent, it might just be the summer’s most outrageous—and oddly relatable—ride into adulthood.
