Julia Louis-Dreyfus Captures Hilarious Moment with a ‘Veep’ Fan on a Flight!
Regardless of your political stance, I believe we can all share a sense of disappointment that the 2025 TV lineup will still lack new episodes of the satirical comedy series Veep. For seven seasons on HBO, this sharp-witted ensemble show, spearheaded by Julia Louis-Dreyfus, skewered American politics with unrelenting humor, seldom leaving any topic untouched. Interestingly enough, someone recently found themselves revisiting this very show during a flight, and none other than the actress herself, known for her role in Seinfeld, documented the moment, even including a heartfelt message.
As you’ll see in the embed from Louis-Dreyfus’ Instagram stories, she spotted this Veep fan taking flight and captured the moment. But pay close attention to the text at the bottom:
To be frank, if it had been Julia Louis-Dreyfus sitting behind me while I was watching Veep, I’d probably feel a bit on edge. After all, her favorite funny moments from Selina Meyer might not align with mine. Moreover, our opinions regarding the series finale could vary significantly, as I believe Season 7’s “Veep” to be one of the finest final episodes in sitcom history.
Reading that Ms. Louis-Dreyfus appreciated having an HBO Max subscription makes me confident we’d share similar feelings about her emotional response to the last day of filming ‘Veep’. However, it’s important to note that just because she enjoyed the subscription doesn’t mean she was constantly speculating on Selena Meyer’s hypothetical presidency.
With ads starting at just $9.99 per month, you can dive into the vast array of entertainment HBO Max has to offer. Not only is their content collection speedy, but it’s packed with many comedy series and films that will keep you engaged. I strongly suggest using this platform to catch up on (or revisit) all seven seasons of the critically acclaimed show “Veep.” Check out the deal here!
After wrapping up “Veep”, Julia Louis-Dreyfus has remained active with numerous ventures. Indie films like A24’s hit “You Hurt My Feelings” have added diversity to her portfolio, while she continues to be a part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Furthermore, her involvement in the blockbuster genre was reaffirmed by joining the impressive cast of “Thunderbolts”.
Despite the ongoing MCU project that features Countess Valentina Allegra de Fontaine, my thoughts often drift back to the seven years spent on ‘Veep.’ In truth, Val seems quite similar to Selena, but in a more family-friendly setting – especially when we observe her manipulating power dynamics in Washington D.C.
As a devoted film enthusiast, I can’t help but ponder if the talented Julia Louis-Dreyfus would consider starring in a Disney+ series, one that chronicles her Marvel character’s ongoing quest for power and the obstacles that persistently hinder her progress. While it’s crucial not to strive for an exact replica of Armando Iannucci’s acclaimed dark comedy, it would be delightful to have a series with a similar essence to tide us over until the next movie installment.
It seems like Marvel’s TV shows might be focusing more on standalone stories in the future, which piques my interest. Go ahead and check out “Thunderbolts” in theaters and share your thoughts. On a different note, all seven seasons of Julia Louis-Dreyfus in “Veep” are available to stream on HBO Max if you’re interested.
