2015. “Wet Hot American Summer” prequel still courtesy of Netflix

As we enter this glorious Memorial Day weekend, with barbecues and the ability to wear white clothing again, it’s fitting that Netflix would help the country kick off the summer with another inside look at the upcoming Wet Hot American Summer series. This morning, the streaming service released eight new stills of the classic characters.

While some campers seem to not age at all (we’re looking at youPaul Rudd and Elizabeth Banks), for others, the summer air of Maine will do them good, as they look roughly fourteen years older when they first come to Camp Firewood, as opposed to their epic final day. Strange how that works…

Most of the film’s original cast appears in these exclusive photos, but we still don’t have any idea about the new additions to the WHAS family like Jon Hamm, John Slattery, Jason Schwartzman, and Kristen Wiig according to the project’s IMDB page.


All eight episodes of Wet Hot American Summer: First Day of Camp will be available on Netflix starting on July 17.
