Pizza Movie’ Debuts on Hulu and Disney+ With Early Raves

The feature debut from comedy duo BriTANicK blends tight plotting with loose improv for a stylized stoner comedy.

Overview

  • Pizza Movie, which launched Friday, is now streaming on Hulu in the U.S. and on Disney+ in several regions.
  • Early reaction is strong, with a lively SXSW premiere and critic scores around 81–82 percent on Rotten Tomatoes fueling cult‑favorite chatter.
  • The story follows two college roommates who take an experimental hallucinogenic called M.I.N.T.S. and race to pick up a pizza as their night spirals through surreal phases.
  • Writers-directors Brian McElhaney and Nick Kocher (BriTANicK) pair an intricately mapped “house of cards” structure with on-set improvisation that the cast says shaped jokes and character beats.
  • Gaten Matarazzo and Sean Giambrone lead a young ensemble that includes Lulu Wilson, with a brief Daniel Radcliffe voice appearance among the cameos.
