Wait, we just added a bunch of really good events to Vulture Festival this year, and you can buy tickets to all of them now. The scream queen herself, Jamie Lee Curtis, is coming to celebrate Halloween one last time as the ultimate final girl; Kumail Nanjiani is going to talk about comedy; John Cameron Mitchell and Stephen Trask are going to celebrate Hedwig and the Angry Inch through song and conversation; we’re doing an event For All Mankind with Krys Marshall and Lev Gorn; and three words: The White Lotus. Meghann Fahy will join us for a special advanced screening of episode three of the new season and then she’s gonna talk to us about it afterward! And because we love an analysis, Sam Taggart and George Civeris will bring their podcast Straightiolab to us for something fun we can’t tell you about yet. You can even see an advanced screening of Disney+’s Limitless With Chris Hemsworth and then you can join Tulsa King writer Terence Winter and cast members Andrea Savage, Martin Starr, Garrett Hedlund, and Dana Delany for a look at the upcoming Paramount+ series. But your ability to do and see all of this depends largely on your purchasing tickets now, before they sell out! So grab your jack-o’-lanterns, fancy sun hats, and spacesuits or what have you and grab yourself a seat!

Realizing that his mob family may not have his best interests in mind, Dwight slowly builds a crew from a group of unlikely characters to help him establish a new criminal empire in a place that, to him, might as well be on another planet. Come see a special screening of the premiere episode, followed by a conversation with executive producer, showrunner, and writer Terence Winter and cast members Andrea Savage, Martin Starr, Garrett Hedlund, and Dana Delany.
