Netflix RomCom ‘Players’ Stars Gina Rodriguez, Tom Ellis
Netflix has released the preview video for the upcoming romcom Players. This movie stars Gina Rodriguez, Tom Ellis, Damon Wayans Jr., Liza Koshy, Augustus Prew, and Joel Courtney. They all play wingmen to help make a “play” that will result in one of them hooking up for the night. However, what happens when these meaningless games are not enough? What happens if someone wants something more?
This is the story of a woman who used to focus on hookups, making up plays with her friends. However, everything changes when she meets the right guy.
Here are all the details of this upcoming unconventional Netflix romcom.
What Is Players About?
Netflix just dropped the preview for its new romcom Players. Gina Rodriguez is a New York City sportswriter named Mack. However, her sports obsession is more than what she writes about. Firstly, she is making “plays” with the help of her wingmen friends when they go out. They scope out a potential hookup and then the team gets to work. Moreover, their pal gets some action with the unaware person. They score and win the game.
But, there are some caveats to the plays. That includes a “strict set of ground rules.” The number one rule? “You can’t build a relationship from a play.”
However, everything changes when Mack meets war reporter Nick. The team gets into action and suddenly, he is ambushed wherever he goes. Nick even jokes with Mack about that very thing. But, Mack wants more than just a hook-up. Not long ago, she loved the thrill of the play. Mack was happy to walk away after the score. Yet, now, she is ready for the real thing. Now, the team works on creating the magic for the couple to fall in love.
