Podcast Stars Tackle Berlin's Toughest Nightclub
4 Dec
Summary
- Podcast hosts Bowen Yang and Matt Rogers will write and star in a new film.
- The comedy is inspired by their podcast episode about Berghain nightclub.
- This project reunites them with Searchlight Pictures after 'Fire Island'.
Multi-hyphenate entertainers Bowen Yang and Matt Rogers are set to write and star in an untitled comedy for Searchlight Pictures. The film draws inspiration from a "Search Engine" podcast episode titled "Why Didn't Chris and Dan Get Into Berghain?," which chronicled two Americans' attempt to gain entry into Berlin's notoriously exclusive nightclub, Berghain.
This new venture reunites Yang and Rogers with Searchlight, having previously collaborated on the 2022 queer rom-com "Fire Island." The popular "Las Culturistas" podcast hosts, who have earned multiple Podcast of the Year awards, are bringing their established comedic chemistry to this feature film.
Yang, an Emmy nominee for "Saturday Night Live," has upcoming roles in "Wicked: For Good" and "The Cat in the Hat." Rogers recently appeared in "Good Fortune" and the Apple TV series "Palm Royale." Their involvement in this Berghain-themed comedy promises a unique take on navigating exclusive cultural landscapes.
