Earlier this year, Netflix dropped FYRE: The Greatest Party That Never Happened on the streaming platform. The documentary told the story of how hundreds of influencers jetted off to an island in Barbados for a music festival, only to be met with torrential rain, not enough tents, and no music.

Now, the streaming giants are releasing The I-Land, which will tell a similar story but in the form of a horror series. A group of attractive young people will show up on an island for a music festival, only for things to drastically go downhill very quickly.

The official synopsis reads: “When 10 people wake up on a treacherous island with no memory of who they are or how they got there, they set off on a trek to try to get back home.

“They soon discover this world is not as it seems. Faced with the I-Land’s extreme psychological and physical challenges, they must rise to their better selves – or die as their worst ones.”

You can watch the official trailer here:

It looks like there’s another Fyre Fest coming our way. 

Multiple outlets report that Queens rapper Ja Rule is planning out bringing Fyre back.

Just a month after two documentaries — Netflix’s Fyre and Hulu’s Fyre Fraud — chronicled the he chaos and fraud of the festival, the42-year-old rapper revealed to TMZ that he’s already planning the next Fyre Festival. Ja Rule admitted he didn’t watch the documentary, saying, “It’s not funny to me — it’s heartbreaking to me. It was something that I really, really wanted to be special and amazing, and it just didn’t turn out that way.”

Ja Rule told the outlet that despite the collapse of the 2017 festival, he is developing plans for an “iconic” music festival similar to the failed Fyre Fest. 

“It is the most iconic festival that never was,” he told TMZ Thursday. “I have plans to create the ICONNic music festival,” he added confidently, referencing his new app ICONN, a “celebrity entertainment booking and concierge service,” which he announced on Twitter earlier this month.

Entrepreneur Billy McFarland is currently in prison for fraud, but just this week Ja Rule tweeted, “The reason I say it’s not fraud is because the festival was NOT a fraud. Billy fraudulently doctored agreements to get money from investors that’s why he’s in prison… nothing to do with ME…”
