Big things are happening for Kildare comedian Aisling Bea these days (but sure we knew that would happen way back) but this latest news could propel this talented lady to super-stardom.
It was announced by Deadline this week that Bea has landed a role in Paul Rudd's upcoming Netflix comedy series, 'Living with Yourself'.

Details of her role have yet to be disclosed but the series will follow a man (Rudd) struggling with his life who undergoes a new treatment to become a better person and finds he’s been replaced by a new and improved version — revealing that his own worst enemy is himself.
The eight-episode series will see 'Little Miss Sunshine' directors Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris at the helm while Timothy Greenberg ('The Daily Show With Jon Stewart') created 'Living With Yourself' and is showrunning/exec producing.
Bea has already worked with Netflix and features in the second season of 'The Comedy Lineup' with a 15-minute stand up special that debuts today (Friday).
