Benito Skinner: The Closeted Jock – Overcompensating Teaser

Comedian and TikTok sensation Benito Skinner (also known as Benny Drama) is gearing up to star in his very own series called “Overcompensating,” and the first teaser is here! The tagline, “College… come as you aren’t,” sets the tone for what promises to be a hilarious ride.

The show follows Benny, a closeted ex-football player and homecoming king, as he navigates college life alongside Carmen, a high school misfit desperate to fit in. With the help of Benny’s sister and her boyfriend, they tackle bad hookups, flavored vodka, and fake IDs. The series promises to be deeply funny and personal, exploring the theme of overcompensation on the journey to self-discovery.

Skinner not only stars in the show but also created, wrote, and is executive producing it. The talented cast includes Wally Baram, Mary Beth Barone, Adam DiMarco, and Rish Shah. Keep an eye out for guest appearances from Connie Britton, Kyle MacLachlan, Kaia Gerber, and more.

Surprise cameo alert! Charli XCX, the executive music producer for the series, pops up in the trailer. The Grammy winner hilariously expresses her reluctance to play “Boom Clap” at a college party.

Produced by A24 and Amazon MGM Studios, “Overcompensating” is set to premiere on May 15, 2025, on Prime Video. Check out the teaser for a taste of what’s to come in this exciting new show!
