Summer of 69 Hulu is bringing big laughs this summer with its raunchy and heartwarming comedy. Directed by Jillian Bell in her directorial debut, this hilarious coming-of-age movie centers on Abby (played by Sam Morelos), a high school senior who is desperate to impress her crush Max before graduation. With little experience in romance, Abby enlists the help of Santa Monica, a seasoned exotic dancer played by Saturday Night Live’s Chloe Fineman, to teach her the art of seduction.
The Summer of 69 Hulu trailer reveals a quirky plot that follows Abby as she learns about love, lust, and what it takes to win over her crush. But things get even more interesting when Abby’s school mascot—a St. Bernard—gives her a clue that Max has a particular fondness for a certain intimate position (which is how the title comes into play). Abby then ventures into the local strip club, where she meets Santa Monica, who enthusiastically agrees to help Abby with her mission.

Behind the Scenes of Summer of 69 Hulu
Bell, who co-wrote and directed the movie, shares that the experience of making the film was one of pure fun. Shot during a summer in Syracuse, the cast bonded over barbecues, Mafia games, and pontoon rides on the lake. Bell also draws from her own personal experiences, particularly her close relationship with her sister Breanna, for whom this film serves as a love letter. In the film, Abby’s journey of self-discovery and navigating difficult conversations about sexuality mirrors Bell’s own experiences growing up.
As Bell says, Summer of 69 Hulu is exactly the kind of comedy we need right now. It celebrates the openness and humor in discussing topics that are often difficult, offering a hilarious yet heartfelt portrayal of young women navigating their bodies, desires, and relationships.
