Video: Watch Trailer for DRAG ME TO THE MOVIES Featuring Ginger Minj, Jujubee, & More

“Drag Me To The Movies”, an all-new series from World of Wonder, has just been announced.

Premiering May 15, the series will see fan-favorite queens from across the Drag Race franchise parody blockbuster features like “Top Gun”, “Scream” and “The Wizard of Oz” over 8 episodes. “Drag Me To The Movies” is written and directed by World of Wonder’s Ron Hill and Jeff Maccubbin, the editors of “UNHhhh” and creators of “Why R Humans?”.

The trailer reveals a first taste of the irreverent format, as well as the full line-up of featured titles: Verse Btm Gun (“Top Gun”), A Star is Spawned (“A Star is Born”), Spider-Lady of the Evening (“Spider-Man”), The Silence of the Prada (“The Devil Wears Prada” // “The Silence of the Lambs”), Yelling Loudly (“Scream”), The Real Housewives of the Red Onion (“Knives Out”), The Wizard of Charisma Uniqueness Nerve and Talent (Wizard of Oz), and Showgirls and Sensibility (“Showgirls” // “Sense and Sensibility”). The series stars Ginger Minj, Jujubee, Shea Couleé, Jimbo, Crystal Methyd, Kelly Mantle, Mayhem Miller, Jaymes Mansfield, and Daya Betty.

"Ron and Jeff are geniuses, as you've seen with their other WOW Presents Plus Originals, "UNHhhh" and "Why R Humans?",” said World of Wonder co-founders Fenton Bailey and Randy Barbato, “and we can't wait for fans to experience their latest work with "Drag Me To The Movies". This stellar cast of Drag Race fan favorites take camp classics and make them even campier! You'll never watch your favorite movies the same way again!" 

“If there are two things we are obsessed with, it's Camp Classic Movies, and drag queens,” said series writer and director duo Ron Hill and Jeff Maccubbin. “And we have been so lucky to get to twist these two things that we love into something fun and profoundly stupid.  Our Awards Season-worthy cast constantly surprised us with their talent, dedication, and general green screen antics. See you at the (drag) movies!”
