Our own Aisling Bea's career is going from strength to strength.
Most recently, the Kildare woman won critical acclaim for her sitcom 'This Way Up', which she wrote and co-starred in alongside the likes of Sharon Horgan and Tobias Menzies.
Her latest project is a major comedy series for Netflix, 'Living with Yourself', in which she stars with not one, but TWO Paul Rudds. Yes, everyone - that's two Paul Rudds.
The first trailer for the series has dropped and the premise sees Rudd's character, Miles, clone himself in a dodgy spa. When we wakes up, he's a 'new improved' version of himself - but his former self hasn't gone away.
Bea plays his wife Kate and Alia Shawkat also features.
Here's the official spiel:
"The Netflix original series LIVING WITH YOURSELF is an inventive existential comedy that asks: do we really want to be better? Miles (Paul Rudd) is a man struggling in life. When he undergoes a novel spa treatment that promises to make him a better person, he finds he’s been replaced by a new and improved version of himself. As he deals with the unintended consequences of his actions, Miles finds he must fight for his wife (Aisling Bea), his career, and his very identity.
Told from multiple perspectives, the eight-episode series was created and written by Emmy® Award winner Timothy Greenberg (The Daily Show with Jon Stewart), directed by Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris (The Battle of the Sexes, Little Miss Sunshine) and stars Paul Rudd and...Paul Rudd. Greenberg executive produces with Anthony Bregman and Jeff Stern for Likely Story, Tony Hernandez for Jax Media, Dayton, Faris, Rudd, and Jeff Blitz."
It's available on Netflix from October 18th - watch the trailer below:
