From the brilliant comedic and emotive mind of Oscar and Tony Award nominee Colman Domingo (Rustin, The Color Purple, and Euphoria) comes the deeply imaginative dark comedy about death Wild with Happy. It is performed by an all-star cast.

Gil (Domingo) is a struggling NYC actor who heads home to Philadelphia after the passing of his mother, Adelaide (Winfrey). The plan is to tidy-up her affairs as quickly and efficiently as possible, until a few unpredictably hilarious detours ensue. With his Aunt Glo (Washington) insisting on a proper burial, but an urn of ashes already in his hand, Gil’s best friend Mo (Newell) throws him in a car. Aunt Glo and the funeral director (Williams), now Gil’s lover (yes, that happened), follow in hot pursuit. Several states later they all reach their final destination, and Gil’s mom’s final resting place: the one place on earth that made her wild with happy.

There is a good chance you may find yourself laughing and crying at the same time. Enjoy the ride that we all don’t want to take but will be so very wild with happy that we did.
