With less than three weeks to go until the first season of Ryan Murphy and Kim Kardashian's legal drama All's Fair hits Hulu screens (Nov. 4th, to be precise), Murphy held a world premiere on Thursday night at the DGA Theater Complex. To sya that it was star-studded would be a righteous understatement. We're talking about Kardashian, Naomi Watts, Niecy Nash-Betts, Teyana Taylor, Sarah Paulson, Glenn Close, and more, walking the red carpet in support of a series that's trailer continues to burn up YouTube (44 million views there alone).
"For all of us on the 'All's Fair' group chat, we're very astounded by this fact. In between talking about vaginal rejuvenation tips, we wrote, 'What does this mean? How is this possible?' We're so grateful," Murphy shared during his introduction to the screening, referring to the millions of viewers who've checked out the official trailer on YouTube and other sites/social media. "I myself pondered that question and then I kind of understood it. 134 million views of a trailer is something that's usually granted to superhero movies. And when you think about it, with this cast, we've given the world what they really need right now, and that's cultural superheroes."
"Think about it," Murphy continued, offering his cast ("this season's lady Avengers") their flowers. "In the past 20 years or more, the women of this cast have more than jumped buildings in a single bound. They are icons, every single one of them. They've changed culture, they've all done good works, virtuous works. In many cases, they fought the bad guys and won. They've run empires and inspired millions of people all over the world and won countless awards, sometimes wearing capes. To me, the appetite for the show makes sense on and off screen. These women and the characters they play in the show are here to inspire, conspire, and uplift in very dark and troubling times."
Ahead of the event, Kardashian, Paulson, Nash-Betts, and Watts took some time on the red carpet to discuss the Hulu series, the chances of a second season, being a part of the "Murphyverse," and much more:
And here's a look at Kardashian, Watts, Nash-Betts, Taylor, Paulson, and Close together on the red carpet:
