Since stepped back from Veep, Armando Iannucci has been busy working on the wildly funny The Death Of Stalin.
With the black comedy reaching cinemas imminently, Iannucci’s next project has been announced: a comedy sci-fi set in outer-space and based in the future.
According to Deadline, HBO — the home of Veep — has greenlit a pilot for the show, tentatively titled Avenue 5.
Iannucci previously stepped away from Veep in 2015, citing the strain of working on a US series while his family was based in London.
