Hulu's Deli Boys Cast and Creator Tease the Surprising Levels of Gore, Stunts and Laughs at Sundance

Описание: In Deli Boys, nothing is what it seems for Mir (Asif Ali) and Raj (Saagar Shaikh) after their father dies. Overnight, the characters uncover that their Baba had been secretly managing an international cocaine smuggling operation, a business they have now inherited. As the two of them dive into the underworld, they hope to get back everything that they've lost by following in their father's footsteps. The upcoming Hulu series created by stand-up comedian Abdullah Saeed mixes comedy and crime, resulting in a chaotic and gory watch.

The show premiered at the Sundance Film Festival this year, and Deli Boys' main cast and creator paid a visit to the Collider studio at the Rendezvous Cinema Center to discuss the Hulu original. Ali, Shaikh, Saeed, actress Poorna Jagannathan (Never Have I Ever), and showrunner Michelle Nader all sat down with Collider's own Steve Weintraub and talked about coming up with a series that was funny and unlike anything that they've seen before.

During their conversation, which you can watch in the video above or read in the transcript below, Shaikh talks about doing drugs with Saeed in the lead-up to getting his role, representing the South Asian community with accuracy in the pilot, their prospects for future seasons, and each of their favorite episodes. Jagannathan also shares an update on the production of Lanterns, Damon Lindelof's anticipated new series.
