Per the official logline, “After Molly (Michelle Williams) receives a diagnosis of Stage IV metastatic breast cancer, she decides to leave her husband, Steve (Jay Duplass), and begins to explore the full breadth and complexity of her sexual desires for the first time in her life. Gird yourself, Molly has a lot to accomplish in the little time she has left. There’s no time for pearl clutching or passing judgement, Molly has no interest in what you think about her proverbial bucket list (btw, this phrase will always provoke an eye roll). She gains the courage to embark on this adventure from her ride or die Nikki (Jenny Slate), a woman whose love and devotion will compel you to pick up the phone and call that friend already!”
The cast of the series also includes Rob Delaney, Kelvin Yu, David Rasche, Esco Jouléy, and Sissy Spacek.
“Dying for Sex” is co-created by Kim Rosenstock and Elizabeth Meriwether, with both also executive producing. Katherine Pope, Kathy Ciric, Wondery’s Hernan Lopez, Jen Sargent, Marshall Lewy and Aaron Hart also executive produce along with Williams, Boyer, Shannon Murphy and Leslye Headland.
