Drag Me To Dinner, created by Neil Patrick Harris and David Burtka, is set to premiere on Hulu this May, and here’s everything to know about its release date, cast, episodes, trailer, and more. The brand-new reality competition series is a must-watch for RuPaul's Drag Race fans, as several queens from the franchise will feature as contestants. The iconic Bianca Del Rio, along with Neil Patrick Harris, David Burtka, and Haneefah Wood, are the judges, while dapper NYC drag king Murray Hill takes charge as the host.
Hulu promises the new drag competition show is, “deliciously addictive,” with the, “most fabulous, awe-inspiring, drag-tastical dinner parties of all time.” Former RuPaul's Drag Race contestants, some of whom will soon be seen on RuPaul's Drag Race: All Stars season 8, will show off their Master Chef-level cooking skills in this witty and fierce competition. Apart from marking reunions between memorable pairings from the world of drag, it's also one of the final performances of Heklina, the San Francisco drag legend who passed away on April 3, 2023, in London.
