The show is set to premiere on May 21 and will reportedly feature Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Ben Stiller and Adam Scott. The stars are tasked with getting out of the escape room; however, they have to be careful of the game master Jack Black. Jack Black is also the producer of the show and has mentioned that the show is a battle of wits and it can be termed as ‘you vs the room’. Adam Scott also added that the game is diabolical and quite intense. The makers added that the stars will have to escape the room through a bunch of different settings, including things like an outdated living room, gymnasium filled with balloons and explosives, and so on.

Lisa Kudrow, on the hand, said that she hardly remembers anything because there were too many loud noises. The proceeds from this show will go to the Red Nose Day foundation that aims to raise funds for children in poverty. The organisation does this through entertainment as it reaches a larger audience.
