Scene from “Overcompensating”
Social media sensation Benito Skinner, the mastermind behind the wildly popular “Benny Drama” and his impressive array of original characters and celebrity impressions (think Shawn Mendes and the Kardashians), is embarking on a new chapter.
In his first starring role, Skinner portrays a character inspired by his own life. Overcompensating, a new comedy series created by and starring Skinner, promises a candid and comedic look at coming out, coming-of-age, and the often-awkward realities of young adulthood.
Produced by A24 and described as “deeply funny and personal,” the eight-episode first season will explore the universal experience of overcompensating while searching for one’s true self. Mark your calendars:
Overcompensating premieres globally on Amazon Prime Video on May 15.
