Film Updates on June 2 shared photos from PAPER Magazine’s new feature on the cast of Hulu’s “Not Suitable for Work,” a comedy series created by Mindy Kaling.

PAPER’s feature named five leads — Ella Hunt, Avantika, Nicholas Duvernay, Jack Martin and Will Angus — in a photo shoot tied to the show’s launch. PAPER published the feature on June 2 under the headline “Mindy Kaling’s ‘Not Suitable For Work’ Cast Are Just Getting Started.” The magazine credited Caroline Tompkins for photography and Stephen Daw for the story, and described the cast joining a video call together as they discussed the new Hulu series. ### Which cast members appeared in the new PAPER spread?

(papermag.com) Variety reported on April 7 that Hulu set “Not Suitable for Work” as a single-camera comedy from Mindy Kaling. The trade said the show centers on “five work-obsessed twenty-somethings” pursuing career success and personal happiness in Manhattan’s Murray Hill neighborhood. (forbes.com) PAPER’s June 2 story described the series as Hulu’s new coming-of-age comedy and said the characters are entering the workforce while trying to balance work and life. The article said the first season runs nine episodes. ### Why were Avantika and Jack Martin singled out in the social post? Film Updates’ post emphasized the cast imagery rather than new production news, matching the way fan and entertainment accounts often circulate magazine shoots tied to premieres. (variety.com) The social post specifically pointed viewers to PAPER’s editorial package, while the underlying feature included multiple images and interview material centered on the ensemble. (papermag.com) Forbes’ June 2 guide added character detail that helps explain the attention on those actors. Avantika’s Abby is described as AJ’s best friend and an assistant to a celebrity stylist, while Martin’s Josh is described as a journalist and “nepo baby” whose father runs a network.

PAPER’s June 2 feature hosts the full photo spread and interview with the ensemble cast, including Avantika, Jack Martin, Ella Hunt, Nicholas Duvernay and Will Angus.
