NEWSLily James & Sebastian Stan Embody Pamela Anderson & Tommy Lee In The Scandalous Trailer For Hulu's Upcoming Series 'Pam & Tommy'
The preview for the much talked about series Pam & Tommy has dropped!
The drama filled trailer for the upcoming eight part Hulu show — set to drop on February 2 — will feature Lily James as Pamela Anderson and Sebastian Stan as Tommy Lee. The series will depict the couple's infamous love story and the drama that ensues.
Anderson and Lee were married from 1995 to 1998 after only dating for a mere four days. The former couple share sons Brandon, 24, and Dylan, 23.
The star studded project also boasts Seth Rogen as a former disgruntled employee of the rocker Rand Gauthier who along with his pal Uncle Miltie (played by Nick Offerman) steal the 1995 sex tape that the Baywatch star and the Mötley Crüe member made on their honeymoon.

"This is so private, it's like we're seeing something we're not supposed to be seeing," Miltie tells a stunned Gauthier of the raunchy footage.
"Nobody's ever getting rich off a celebrity sex tape," Andrew Dice Clay's character Butchie tells the pair who are looking to make money off the video.

An inspired Gautheir goes on to suggest, "What if we sold it someplace nobody could find us? A website!" to which Miltie responds "A what site?"
As the tape leaks, a worried Anderson begins to panic about the effect it will have on her career. "You don't seem to understand what a big deal this is," James explains playing the blonde bombshell.

"I'm on that tape just the same as you," Lee shouts back at Anderson to which she replies "But this is worse for me."
The series' producer Sue Naegle told People that telling the couple's story felt extremely relevent as she explained, "Having lived through that time in our culture, it seemed like a good moment to reexamine what happened to Pam and Tommy in 1995 through a 2022 lens."

"There was so much happening with the birth of the internet and this tape really shaped celebrity culture and the invasive paparazzi we know today," she continued. "The story has so many moving parts, it needed to be told in a series."
"I hope it makes us think about how we treat people in the public eye and the inherent gender bias in celebrity culture," she conlcuded.
