Lil Rel Gets HBO Comedy Special; Loudermilk Season 3 Details
Comedian, actor, writer and producer Lil Rel (The Carmichael Show, Rel) will star in his first HBO stand-up comedy special, it was announced by HBO. To be taped before a live audience in Los Angeles sometime in July, the exclusive hour-long presentation will be executive produced by Lil Rel, Jerrod Carmichael, Bo Burnham, Chris Storer, Jeff Tomsic and Avi Gilbert. Lil Rel's previous credits include the Oscar(R)-winning "Get Out," the record-breaking hit "Bird Box" and HBO's "Insecure." The special will be produced for HBO by Ashley LLC; executive producers, Lil Rel, Jerrod Carmichael, Bo Burnham, Chris Storer, Jeff Tomsic and Avi Gilbert; produced by Matt Vaughn; directed by Jerrod Carmichael.
AT&T Audience Network announced it will begin production on the 3rd season of its critically acclaimed series Loudermilk in Vancouver. Returning for season 3 are Ron Livingston (A Million Little Things) as Sam Loudermilk, Will Sasso (United We Fall) as Ben and Anja Savcic (Extraterrestrial) as Claire. Still reeling from his father's death, Loudermilk finds himself the caretaker of his much, much, MUCH younger half-brother after the kid's mom drops him off on Sam's doorstep. Barely equipped to deal with his own issues, Loudermilk leans on Ben, Claire, and his Sober Friends group to be the family his little bro desperately needs. And just when it seems like Loudermilk's glass half-empty worldview couldn't get worse, he has to watch friends (and enemies) make big strides forward, while everything in his world is decidedly stuck in neutral.
Oscar-winner Peter Farrelly and Bobby Mort will continue to serve as executive producers, along with Bart Peters of Big Branch Productions, Mark Burg of Mark Burg Productions and Shane Elrod of AT&T Audience Network. Peter Farrelly will direct the first three episodes with Bobby Farrelly returning to direct the final seven episodes.
