  • Hbo Premieres All New Series Girls and Veep
    HBO PREMIERES ALL NEW SERIES GIRLS AND VEEP  Miami, July 9, 2012 – HBO Latin America announced that Girls and Veep, two new original comedies, will premiere on July 23. The first episode of both productions will be available on www.hbomax.tv after they air onscreen. Girls is a comedy directed by Lena Dunham, the up-and-coming filmmaker and actor, who also stars in the series. Veep stars Emmy®-award-winning actress Julia Louis-Dreyfus, who has starred in popular series like Seinfield and Curb your Enthusiasm.  Created and led onscreen by Lena Dunham, Girls takes a comic look at the assorted humiliations and rare triumphs of a group of women in their early 20s living in New York City. The series, which has already been renewed for a second season, focuses on the girls’ adventures in post-collegiate floundering.  A fresh and intimate look at friendship, relationships and self-discovery, Girls is a contemporary coming-of-age show that packs humor, farce and poignancy into each episode. Through four distinct characters, who may seem unlikely friends to some, Girls shines through as a voice of the post-recession generation who can hardly afford lunch, let alone Manolos. In addition to Lena Dunham as the anxious, rumpled Hannah, the cast of Girls includes Jemima Kirke as the beautiful Jessa, allergic to all things bourgeois; Allison Williams as Marnie, Hannah’s uptight roommate with strict rules about their best-friendship; Zosia Mamet (Mad Men) as Shoshanna, an NYU student and Jessa’s self-help obsessed roommate and cousin; and Adam Driver (HBO’s You Don’t know Jack) As Hannah’s love interest, Adam.

  • VEEP SEASON 6 Premiering Wednesdays from April 26 at 8.30Pm
    Media Release: Thursday, April 13 2017 VEEP SEASON 6 Premiering Wednesdays from April 26 at 8.30pm or stream instantly on Foxtel Play From Wednesday, April 26 at 8.30pm, Foxtel will present the sixth season of the HBO award-winning comedy series Veep starring Emmy® winner Julia Louis-Dreyfus as Selina Meyer, the former Vice President and onetime President, who looks to secure her legacy now that she’s out of office. The acclaimed comedy takes a sharp, satirical look at the insular world of politics, following the day-to-day existence of the former VP and onetime President Selina Meyer. Season 6 picks up one year after the events of Season 5, in which Selina ultimately lost a Senate vote to resolve the Electoral College tie. Now out of public office for the first time in years, Selina seeks to secure her legacy and find her place in the world, while much of her staff pursues endeavors of their own. A perennial favorite with fans and critics, this 10-episode season of Veep finds this band of misfits attempting to make their mark, while navigating the political landscape in Washington and beyond. Veep has received seven Golden Globe nominations since its debut in 2012, and has won a total of twelve Primetime Emmys®, including three 2016 Emmys® for Outstanding Comedy Series, Outstanding Casting for a Comedy Series, and Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series (Louis-Dreyfus).

  • From Baltimore, 'Veep' Holds a Mirror to D.C
    From Baltimore, 'Veep' holds a mirror to D.C. http://www.usatoday.com/story/life/tv/2013/04/09/set-visit-hbo-vee... Lorena Blas, USA TODAY 5:26 p.m. EDT April 9, 2013 OWINGS MILLS, Md. — Despite overcast skies and a freezing-rain forecast on this late winter day, sun is shining through the windows at the vice president's home, some 54 miles north of Washington, D.C. The sunlight is fake — radiating from huge lamps attached to the bucket rising from a truck outside — and it streams into a re-created executive residence. Nothing slows down Veep, which returns for Season 2 on HBO Sunday at 10 p.m. ET/PT. (Photo: Lacey Terrell, HBO) STORY: Winning role for Louis-Dreyfus (http://www.usatoday.com/story/life/tv/2013/04/09/julia-louis-dreyfus- veep-hbo/2054469/) Inside the suburban Baltimore mansion that stands in for the vice president's home, cast and crew get ready for a long day of shooting. Show creator and director Armando Iannucci has an ambitious goal: shooting 25 pages of script, almost unheard of in a typical day on a TV set, where eight to 12 pages might be the average. Inside, Julia Louis-Dreyfus paces and recites lines of Vice President Selina Meyer. On set, someone shouts a reminder to "clear this hallway. This hallway is hot." The hall leads to the great room, where the first scene takes place. At the other end of the hall, Iannucci, writer Tony Roche, executive producers Chris Godsick and Frank Rich, and at least a dozen more of the crew, cast and extras watch the monitors.
