But at least we have World of Wonder, the production company behind Rupaul&#8217;s Drag Race, taking a gamble on a broad comedy in the style of Airplane! starring an incredible who&#8217;s-who of queer and camp culture \u2014 including Matt Rogers, Drew Droege, Rachel Bloom, Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Michelle Visage, and Rupaul as President Gagwell.<\/p>\n<p>Stop! That! Train! is directed by Adam Shankman, who directed the Hairspray! musical movie.<\/p>\n<p>And the synopsis on IMdB speaks for itself: &#8220;Two train stewardess BFFs switch from a dull railway to the luxurious Glamazonian Express. During a massive storm, they must work with snooty first-class crew and President Gagwell to prevent disaster in LA.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Enjoy the trailer.
