Emmy Award nominees Will Forte and D’Arcy Carden are set to star in the new dark comedy-drama series “Sunny Nights,” which will premiere on the Australian streaming platform Stan.
Forte and Carden’s New Project
Will Forte, known for “The Last Man on Earth,” and D’Arcy Carden, recognized for her role in “The Good Place,” have both signed on for the leading roles in “Sunny Nights.” This is Forte’s latest project following his recent appearance in Netflix’s dark comedy thriller “Bodkin.” Additionally, Forte is leading two animated shows this year: Disney+’s “Win or Lose” and Prime Video’s “Sausage Party: Foodtopia.” On the other hand, “Sunny Nights” marks Carden’s first major TV series since her role in Prime Video’s “A League of Their Own.”
What is Sunny Nights About?
The series follows siblings Martin (Forte) and Vicki (Carden) Marvin as they move to Sydney with the aim of starting a spray tan business. According to Deadline, they soon find themselves entangled in the city’s criminal underworld and must navigate the challenges of staying alive, avoiding prison, and maintaining their business. The series is described as “a story of how a little bit of sun, a change of scenery, and a touch of violent crime can help a person find their true self.”
