Let's be real here for a second. The only reason some people got through self-quarantine and strict stay at home lockdowns was because of this miraculous thing called drugs and alcohol, some might say. So imagine a time where all of them - every single kind - is illegal. Daunting, right? Almost as if a lighthearted spin on the concept of the Purge day from pop-culture, Hulu's latest film 'The Binge' brings to you a nation where all drugs are illegal except for one day - the titular binge day. With big on-screen comebacks through the comedy and a story that hopefully isn't tenfold as funny in theory as the film will turn out to be, here are all the familiar faces in the Hulu title.
