Best known for creating The Thick of It and Veep, Iannucci fashions a semi-spin-off of the former in the Academy Award®-nominated In the Loop. A scathing satire of contemporary politics, and a perfect acting showcase for Capaldi—reviving his role as the brilliantly belligerent Malcolm Tucker.

Armando Ianucci, the brilliant comic mind behind The Thick of It, turns to the tyranny of Stalinism for this profoundly funny, absurdist romp. With its all-star cast and a masterful control of tone, The Death of Stalin is a breakneck farce and the only rightful heir to Kubrick’s Dr. Strangelove.
