Dying for Sex is a Drama TV Series streaming all eight episodes on April 4, 2025 on Hulu. Dying for Sex is inspired by the real-life story of Molly Kochan, who spent the last two months of her life in a hospital bed determined to finish her memoir. Her lifelong dream was to write a book and be a published author waiting until the last few months of her life to fullfil that dream, Molly died in 2019, before releasing her book, "Screw Cancer: Becoming Whole", in 2020. Molly's friend, who went on the journey with her, Nikki Boyer created the six-part Wondery podcast Dying for Sex in 2020.

Dying for Sex is based on the life of Molly Kochan, who received a diagnosis of terminal Stage IV metastatic breast cancer in 2011 and decided rather than stay in a unsatisfying marriage to Steve, her husband of 15 years, to go and explore the full breadth and complexity of her sexual desires, for the first time in her life. Molly gains the emotional and physical support from her ride-or-die best friend, Nikki, getting the courage to embark on this sexual adventure.
