Is This Thing On Streaming on Hulu March 20

Exciting news! “Is This Thing On?” is set to start streaming on Hulu and on Hulu through Disney+ (for bundle subscribers in the U.S.) starting March 20. The film, directed by Bradley Cooper, known for his work on “A Star Is Born” and “Maestro,” follows the story of Alex, played by Will Arnett, as he explores late-night comedy clubs during a rough patch in his marriage.

Will Arnett really dived into his role by spending about six weeks performing stand-up material in actual clubs almost every night. Not only did he act, but Arnett also co-wrote the film with Cooper and Mark Chappell, based on a story by Arnett, Chappell, and John Bishop. In fact, Bishop’s life inspired the character of Alex in the movie.

The ensemble cast of “Is This Thing On?” includes talented actors like Laura Dern, Andra Day, Bradley Cooper, Christine Ebersole, Ciarán Hinds, Amy Sedaris, Sean Hayes (who collaborates with Arnett on the podcast Smartless), and Scott Icenogle (Hayes’ real-life husband, bringing a unique authenticity to their roles).

The film’s official description reads, “As their marriage quietly unravels, Alex (Will Arnett) faces middle age and an impending divorce, seeking new purpose in the New York comedy scene, while Tess (Laura Dern) confronts the sacrifices she made for their family – forcing them to navigate co-parenting, identity, and whether love can take a new form.”

Excitingly, until March 24, new and eligible returning customers can grab a subscription to the Disney+, Hulu Bundle (With Ads) for just $4.99/month for three months by visiting DisneyPlus.com. So mark your calendars and get ready to catch “Is This Thing On?” for a heartwarming and hilarious journey through the world of comedy and relationships.
