Mockumentary Web Series About Space Travel, ‘My Astronaut,’ Premieres Today

Micah wants to be with Maggie, but Maggie wants to go to Mars. Can their love survive her one-way ticket to another planet? “My Astronaut,” an eight episode mockumentary web series, answers the question of what one dim-witted boyfriend does to keep his girlfriend from leaving and his life from changing forever. The trailer is out now, and the pilot will premiere on May 3, 2018. The series features comedians Scott Adsit (30 Rock), Sarah Stiles (Get Shorty), and Pia Glenn (The Opposition with Jordan Klepper) in supporting roles.

Season one starts with two bewildered filmmakers arriving to profile Maggie Placek (Magdalena Waz), an underdog candidate for a civilian mission to Mars, but they soon find that her boyfriend, Micah Pevsner (Micah Paisner), might hold the key to a story far more compelling than a simple 30 second candidate bio. Shot in 3 out of 5 of New York City’s boroughs, the “My Astronaut” team took full advantage of everything the city had to offer including iconic locations like the Staten Island Ferry and the Columbia University campus, and less iconic locations, like the Red Hook IKEA and the sleepy neighborhoods of Staten Island.

“Shooting guerilla style gave us the opportunity to have our characters interact with rich environments,” says Nick Weiss-Richmond, one of the series’ creators and directors. “It blended seamlessly with the improvisational elements of the story.”

The eight episodes of season one will premiere once a week on YouTube and Vimeo every Thursday.
