#TRAILERCHEST: The Death Of Stalin is the new comedy from the creator of The Thick Of It and Veep

"When I said 'No problem', what I meant was 'No! ... Problem.'"

Welcome to #TrailerChest, where we're taking a sneak peek at the new teaser trailer for The Death Of Stalin. Plot it's all about: Writer and director Armando Iannucci is the man behind such modern classic TV shows as The Thick Of It, The Day Today and Veep, and his sole cinematic outing was the peerless political comedy In The Loop, so to see him return to big screen funnies with politics still very much intact and a crazy talented cast, you can definitely consider us more than a little bit excited. Based on a graphic novel telling the struggle for power following the death of Soviet dictator and the absolute chaos that followed in trying to make everything appear hunky dory, this is right up Iannucci's street, and everyone on board is bringing their comedy A-game, including some we weren't even sure had strong comedic timing. But if Iannucci has a super power, it is sniffing out the actors and actresses who we may never had thought were funny, and showing us that yes, they are actually hilarious. Starring: Steve Buscemi, Jason Isaacs, Rupert Friend, Paddy Considine, Andrea Riseborough, Olga Kurylenko, Jeffrey Tambor and Michael Palin. Directed by: Armando Iannucci. Release date: 20 October 2017. Enjoy! Clip via Entertainment One UK
