Hulu has unveiled the first images from Joel Kim Booster and Bowen Yang’s new queer romantic comedy, Fire Island. The film, which is inspired by Jane Austen’s famous novel Pride and Prejudice, follows Noah (Booster) and his group of friends who take off on a week-long vacation at the titular LGBTQ+ hotspot.

In true rom-com fashion, the group experiences steamy hookups, hilarious moments and friendship testing situations. It also stars Zane Phillips, Torian Miller, Margaret Cho, James Scully, Matt Rogers, and Tomas Matos.
