Need a little vintage 1970s throwback eroticism and feminism in your life? HBO Max has got you and just released the official trailer for the ten-episode Max Original comedy series, “Minx.” The series debuts Thursday, March 17, with two new episodes debuting each week through April 14. What is “Minx”? It’s the place where the 1970s women’s lib movement and ’70s erotic girl magazines meet.
“Minx” is set in 1970s Los Angeles and centers around Joyce (Ophelia Lovibond), an earnest young feminist who joins forces with a low-rent publisher (Jake Johnson) to create the first erotic magazine for women.
Aside from Ophelia Lovibond and Jake Johnson as the leads, “Minx” stars Idara Victor, Jessica Lowe, Lennon Parham, Michael Angarano, and Oscar Montoya.
The “Minx” creator and showrunner is Ellen Rapoport, who executive produces the series alongside Paul Feig and Dan Magnante for Feigco Entertainment, Ben Karlin and Rachel Lee Goldenberg, who also directed the pilot. Jake Johnson serves as a co-executive producer. Lionsgate Television is the studio.
