The video features Culkin and Eisenberg as they portray cousins who decided to go on a trip to Poland following the death of their grandmother.

In addition to Culkin and Eisenberg, the cast also includes Will Sharpe (The White Lotus), Jennifer Grey (Dirty Dancing), Kurt Egyiawan (The Exorcist), Liza Sadovy (Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street), and Daniel Oreskes (Law & Order).

It is produced by Emma Stone, Dave McCary, Ali Herting, Jennifer Semler, and Ewa Puszczyńska. This marks the latest collaboration between Eisenberg and Stone, who previously worked together in the Zombieland franchise.
