‘Bupkis’ Trailer Offers Look at Fictionalized Version of Pete Davidson’s Life (VIDEO)



Pete Davidson is joined by an all-star lineup in the regular and guest cast for his new series.

Peacock‘s new comedy Bupkis from the Saturday Night Live alum will premiere (with all eight episodes) on Thursday, May 4. The streaming service has released the official trailer, featuring both the cast and guest stars, and it offers a look at the heightened, fictionalized version of Pete Davidson’s life and those around him.

“You run around like a kid, and you’re not a kid anymore, you’re a man,” his grandfather (played by Joe Pesci) tells him. At one point, Pete Googles himself. “It was bad,” he says. Watch the trailer above for more.

Bupkis combines grounded storytelling with absurd elements from the unfiltered and completely original worldview for which Pete is well known.

In addition to Davidson and Pesci, Bupkis stars Edie Falco as Pete’s mother. Guest stars include Charlie Day, Brad Garrett, Simon Rex, Ray Romano, Kenan Thompson, Chase Sui Wonders, La La Anthony, Charlamagne Tha God, Colson Baker (Machine Gun Kelly), Steve Buscemi, Bobby Cannavale, Philip Ettinger, Al Gore, Paul Walter Hauser, Sunita Mani, John Mulaney, Oona Roche, Cliff “Method Man” Smith, Jon Stewart, and Marissa Jaret Winokur.

Davidson also serves as writer and executive producer, alongside showrunner Judah Miller and Dave Sirus. Lorne Michaels, Andrew Singer, and Erin David are also executive producers.

“Pete Davidson is one of the most sought-after comedians today with his smart, one-of-a-kind humor and honest point of view,” Susan Rovner, Chairman, Entertainment Content, NBCUniversal Television and Streaming said in a statement when the comedy was ordered straight to series in April 2022. “Bupkis will showcase Pete’s funny, surprising and unfiltered brand of comedy audiences have come to love.”
