Please Don't Destroy's THE TREASURE OF FOGGY MOUNTAIN to Premiere at the New York Comedy Festival

The New York Comedy Festival (NYCF) announces the premiere of the film “PLEASE DON’T DESTROY: THE TREASURE OF FOGGY MOUNTAIN” as part of the ten-day festival. The film will debut in New York City on November 6th and stream exclusively on Peacock November 17th.

In “PLEASE DON’T DESTROY,” John Goodman narrates the adventure of Ben, Martin, and John, three childhood friends turned deadbeat co-workers, who fend off hairless bears, desperate park rangers (Meg Stalter and X Mayo) and a hypocritical cult leader (Bowen Yang) in the hopes of finding a priceless treasure, only to discover that finding the treasure is the easiest part of their journey.

Oh, and Conan O'Brien plays Ben’s dad in it. Produced by Judd Apatow (The KING of Staten Island) and Jimmy Miller (Bad Teacher), the film is written, executive produced by, and starring Martin Herlihy, John Higgins, and Ben Marshall — aka the Please Don’t Destroy guys — and directed by Paul Briganti (Saturday Night Live).

The premiere of "PLEASE DON'T DESTROY: THE TREASURE OF FOGGY MOUNTAIN" marks Peacock's first-ever partnership with the New York Comedy Festival.
