That cast in this is great.

Alan Partridge, Veep, The Thick of It, In the Loop -  just some of the superb creations from the gifted mind of Armando Iannucci and we're delighted to say that the superb satirist is back with a new film, The Death of Stalin. Plot's it all about?: The internal political landscape of 1950’s Soviet Russia takes on darkly comic form in a new film by Emmy award-winning and Oscar-nominated writer/director Armando Iannucci. In the days following Stalin’s collapse, his core team of ministers tussle for control; some want positive change in the Soviet Union, others have more sinister motives. Their one common trait? They’re all just desperately trying to remain alive in this comedy that combines laughs with drama, pathos and political scheming. Cast:  Rupert Friend, Jason Isaacs, Paul Whitehouse, Jeffrey Tambor, Steve Buscemi, Olga Kurylenko, Michael Palin, Simon Russell Beale, Paddy Considine and Andrea Riseborough. Director: Armando Iannucci Release date:  Oct 20. Enjoy! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ukJ5dMYx2no Clip via - Entertainment One UK
