‘Palm Springs’ Star Andy Samberg On How Time-Loop Comedy “Has Its Own Lane” – Contenders Film
Palm Springs, the comedy written by Andy Siara, directed by AFI grad Max Barbakow in his feature debut and starring a cast including Andy Samberg and Cristin Milioti, made history a year ago when it broke all sales records at the Sundance Film Festival. It was picked up instantly in a bidding war won by Neon and Hulu jointly and has won critical raves ever since. It’s a time-loop comedy in which Nyles, played by Samberg, and Sarah, played by Milioti, are forced to relive over and over the same wedding at which they are guests.
