„Spieleabend“ war ein veritabler Hit bei Netflix. Die Komödie von Marco Petry, produziert von W&b Television, startete weltweit auf Platz 7 der nicht-englischsprachigen Charts und hatte 2,3 Mio. Views in den ersten drei Tagen. Jetzt hat der Regisseur in Tirol mit den Dreharbeiten einer neuen Netflix-Komödie begonnen, die noch keinen Titel hat.

“Blame the Game” is a Netflix romantic comedy starring Janina Uhse, Dennis Mojen, Stephan Luca, Taneshia Abt and Edin Hasanović. It is directed by Marco Petry.

Blame the Game

“Blame the Game” is a classic comedic film on Netflix, reminiscent in style to the refined Hollywood classics of Ernst Lubitsch or Frank Capra. This refined and elegant comedy adopts a traditional farcical formula, with most of the action happening on one stage and spanning a single night.

This film, with its simple script and straightforward characters, is sure to entertain those who appreciate a retro-style comedy imbued with a modern narrative thread. Although not uproariously funny, it certainly aims to appeal more to a family audience rather than those seeking outlandish situations.

Axel Foley’s long-awaited comeback in Beverly Hills Cop 4 is almost here! Eddie Murphy has returned to the role of Axel, returning to Beverly Hills to defend his daughter Jane from grave threats. Along with Joseph Gordon-Levitt’s character, Detective Bobby Abbott, he reunites with Billy Rosewood and John Taggart, two of his former pals.

Am 12. Juli starten Janina Uhse, Edin Hasanovic, Anna Maria Mühe oder Axel Stein einen besonderen „Spieleabend“ auf Netflix. Zur W&b Television Produktion gibt es jetzt den Trailer.

Pia (Janina Uhse) und Jan (Dennis Mojen) hat es so richtig erwischt: Die frisch Verliebten befinden sich in Phase 1 ihrer Beziehung und verbringen keine freie Minute ohne einander. Ein Spieleabend mit Pias Freund:innen soll das Liebesglück auch nach außen bekräftigen. Was als fröhliches Kennenlernen geplant war, geht aber komplett nach hinten los und Jan muss sich gleich mehreren Prüfungen stellen.

Auf Unterstützung von Karriere-Karo (Anna Maria Mühe), Spiele-Nerd Oliver (Axel Stein), der leichtgläubigen Sheila (Taneshia Abt), dem kuriosen Kurt (Max Bretschneider) oder Besserwisser-Ex Matthias (Stephan Luca) kann er dabei nicht bauen. Allein sein Kumpel Alex (Edin Hasanovic) gibt alles, um Jans Ehre zu verteidigen und das frische Liebesglück zu retten. Pech im Spiel, Glück in der Liebe – geht die Gleichung wirklich auf?...
