QuoteJulio Torres is ready to welcome you to his fantasy world.The 37-year-old writer and director launched his career writing standout sketches for Saturday Night Live (including fan favorites like "Papyrus" with Ryan Gosling), and he's since established himself as one of the oddest and most delightful voices in comedy right now, co-creating the HBO cult hit Los Espookys and directing his first feature Problemista. Now, Entertainment Weekly can reveal the exclusive first look at his next project: the highly anticipated HBO comedy series Fantasmas, premiering in June.The six-episode series stars Torres as a fictional version of himself, following him as he navigates a dreamlike New York and searches for a lost earring shaped like a tiny gold oyster. Throughout the search, he encounters a whole city's worth of strange characters, and the result is a surreal, introspective deep dive into questions of purpose, meaning, and the nature of reality.
