Directed by Chandler Lavac and written by the SNL duo Jimmy Fowley and Sierra O'Sullivan, Roommates is a 2026 coming-of-age comedy produced by Happy Madison Productions that explores the obsessive and often confusing nature of female friendship in a collegiate setting. The film stars Sadie Sandler as the socially thirsty valedictorian Devon and Chloe East as the \"cool-girl\" Celeste, whose relationship begins at a quirky pre-university ropes course before spiraling into a chaotic mess of shared dorm life. Featuring a supporting cast that includes Nick Kroll, Natasha Lyonne, and Sarah Sherman as a metal-working Dean of Students, the story follows the duo through frat parties, explosive Thanksgiving dinners, and a \"cosplay as poor\" reveal that culminates in a literal dorm fire. Filmed across New Jersey campuses, this Netflix original attempts to capture the \"ride or die\" intensity of freshman year, making it a must-watch for fans of SNL-style character comedy and those who enjoy dissecting the messy dynamics of toxic besties
