A new comedy series is making its way to streaming, and the trailer alone will have you asking, ‘Just how many celebrities are in this?’.
Fantasmas – created, directed by and starring Julio Torres (Problemista and Los Espookys) – aims for the most celebrity cameos possible across just six episodes.
Dylan O’Brien for starters makes a sneaky cameo in the series, spotted wearing red lingerie in the trailer (which you can watch above), and that’s not even considering the countless other stars we saw too.
So, if you’re wondering what is Fantasmas and who exactly is starring in the series, then keep reading as we gather everything you need to know about it.
What is Fantasmas about?
As per the synopsis, writer, director, and comedian Julio Torres spins a fantastical six-part tale of when he lost a gold oyster earring.
“In his search to find the precious object, Julio reflects on the offbeat characters he encounters in introspective, often eerie, and always comedic vignettes set in a dreamy, alternate version of New York City.”
“A kaleidoscope of colour and surrealism, Fantasmas weaves together stories of people looking for meaning, purpose, and connection in an increasingly isolating world.”
Who stars in Fantasmas?
In addition to Torres as Julio, the cast includes Martine Gutierrez as Vanesja, Tomas Matos as Chester and Joe Rumrill as the voice of Bibo.
Nearly two dozen guest stars make special appearances throughout the series’ six episodes, including Steve Buscemi, Paul Dano, Julia Fox, Alexa Demie, Emma Stone, Aidy Bryant, Bowen Yang, Kim Petras, Ziwe and more.
Although, it’s Dylan O’Brien we’re most excited to see make a cameo in the series – wearing red hot lingerie and all.
