We can’t wait for this.
Who doesn’t love Paul Rudd? Seriously. He’s just the best.
He’s absolutely hilarious, a genuinely brilliant actor, and he loves Ireland so much that he has built an entire Irish pub in his house in the US.
So throw him in a Netflix series with Kildare’s own Aisling Bea, and you better believe that we are all in.
In his first leading television role, Rudd plays Miles, a man who is struggling with his life in Living With Yourself.
When he undergoes a novel spa treatment that promises to make him a better person, he finds he’s been replaced by a new and improved version of himself.
Spooky.
As he deals with the unintended consequences of his actions, Miles finds he must fight for his wife (Bea), his career, and his very identity.
Told from a number of different perspectives, the eight-episode series was created and written by Emmy Award winner Timothy Greenberg (The Daily Show with Jon Stewart), and directed by Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris (The Battle of the Sexes, Little Miss Sunshine).
We can see this going down a hit, and we can’t wait to binge-watch it in a matter of days.
Living With Yourself launches globally Friday, 18 October on Netflix.
