Currently on the road promoting her new film Drugstore June, stand-up comedian/actress Esther Povitsky stops by The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon and talks about wedding planning and being engaged to an older man.

Drugstore June follows June (Povitsky), a wannabe influencer juggling multiple issues: her parents pressuring her to move out, her ex-boyfriend accusing her of stalking, and two detectives who suspect she’s involved in the robbery of the local pharmacy.

Drugstore June is directed by Nicholaus Goossen from a screenplay he co-wrote with Povitsky, with Bill Burr also serving as an executive producer.
