Here’s the Elevator Pitch: Follow wildly successful actors and podcasters Will Arnett, Jason Bateman and Sean Hayes on a celebrity-filled North American tour.
HBO Max pushed the concept and has now released the first trailer for “Smartless: On The Road.”
Directed by Sam Jones (“Jason Isbell: Running With Our Eyes Closed,” “Off Camera with Sam Jones”), the six-part docu-series offers a compelling, intimate look at the three friends as they travel through Boston. Brooklyn, Washington, DC, Chicago, Madison, Wisconsin and Los Angeles.
The trailer was released today exclusively at Warner Bros. Discovery’s unveiling of the Max streaming service at Warner Bros. in Los Angeles. It will debut on the streamer on May 23rd.
During the sold-out live tour of their wildly successful SmartLess podcast, the three popular actors traveled and spoke with Conan O’Brien, Will Ferrell, Matt Damon, Jimmy Kimmel, Kevin Hart, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, David Letterman and other guests.
In each episode of SmartLess, one of the hosts reveals their mystery guest to the other two. Three friends’ passion project turned into a podcast that was named one of the best shows of 2020 by Apple and is consistently in the top 5 comedy shows and top 10 overall shows on iTunes.
SmartLess is produced by Michael Grant Terry, Bennett Barbakow and Rob Amjärv. EPs include Arnett, Bateman, Hayes, Sam Jones and Ross M. Dinerstein. Co-EP is Ross Girard and producer is Mark McCune. The series is produced by Campfire Studios.
