Gillian Jacobs, Vanessa Bayer and Phoebe Robinson headline the new Netflix original movie Ibiza. Will Ferrell and Adam McKay’s Gary Sanchez Productions made the film from newcomer director Alex Richanbach. Well, newcomer by name. You’ve probably seen a lot of his work on Funny or Die and other web shorts.
Harper (Jacobs) gets sent on a business trip to Spain. Her friends (Bayer and Robinson) tag along and Harper falls for the DJ Leo (Richard Madden) at a rave. The trio get into trouble following Leo to his next gigs. Richanbach spoke with /Film by phone about directing Ibiza, which premieres on Netflix on Friday, May 25, 2018.
