Mel Brooks Introduces Trailer For His Four-Part Hulu Series HISTORY OF THE WORLD PART II
Hulu has released the first trailer for Mel Brooks’ upcoming four-part Hulu series History of the World Part II. The series is a sequel to Brooks’ classic parody of humankind's story, History of the World Part I, and it looks like it’s going to deliver some funny comedy!
Each episode of the series features a variety of sketches that take us through different periods of human history. Here are some details on what the first couple of episodes will entail:
Episode 101 — “General Grant heads out in search of a drink; After the Russian Tsar is executed, Schmuck Mudman and his family head to Moscow; Shakespeare’s Writers Room; Invention of Fire; The REAL Kama Sutra. Shirley Chisholm (Wanda Sykes).”
Episode 102 — “Judas betrays Jesus; Shirley Chisholm makes a big announcement. General Grant finds himself in trouble and Marco Polo meets Kublai Khan. Schmuck Mudman (Nick Kroll).”
It’s pretty crazy that we are actually getting this sequel 40 years after the first movie was released. Brooks writes and executive produces the series along with Nick Kroll, Wanda Sykes, Ike Barinholtz, and David Stassen. Kevin Salter, David Greenbaum and Christie Smith also serve as executive producers.
The rest of the cast includes Zazie Beetz, Dove Cameron, Danny DeVito, Josh Gad, Johnny Knoxville, Kumail Nanjiani, Seth Rogen, Sarah Silverman, J.B. Smoove, Taika Waititi, and more.
Mel Brooks’ History of the World Part II, will be a four-night event, that begins streaming on March 6th on Hulu.
