Overview

Sex with the Stars centers on Peter Bates, a reserved astrology columnist whose life is upended when the British magazine he works for falls under the control of a provocative American owner. Suddenly, Peter is pressured to overhaul his mild-mannered column into something far more sensational: he must chronicle his experiences of having sex with a woman from each zodiac sign. What follows is a cheeky, horoscope-driven romp through the worlds of astrology and adult magazine publishing, as Peter navigates a gauntlet of personalities, seductions, and comic mishaps—all in the name of journalism. With a cast of memorable women, each representing a different star sign, the film delivers a British sex comedy with an astrological twist.
