What will happen at the live ‘Veep’ cast reunion?
The highlight of the event will be a table read of a memorable scene from season 3, where Louis-Dreyfus’s character, Selina Meyer, discovers that she is set to become the President of the United States. This particular scene gained renewed attention following President Biden’s decision to withdraw from the 2024 election, sparking a wave of online discussions.
“We searched for an older episode where President Meyer makes outrageous claims about immigrants, which seemed absurd at the time,” Louis-Dreyfus remarked to the Hollywood Reporter. “Now, those moments resonate differently.”
Democratic Party of Wisconsin Chair Ben Wikler expressed excitement about the event, stating, “We are thrilled to be collaborating with the incomparable Julia Louis-Dreyfus and the cast of ‘Veep’ to host an unforgettable and hilarious live virtual WisDems event, featuring the one and only Stephen Colbert. Our grassroots supporters are the backbone of our statewide efforts, and events such as this not only honor longtime supporters but also help us connect with new individuals dedicated to electing Democrats in Wisconsin this November.”
Colbert also shared his enthusiasm, saying, “As a fan of ‘Veep’ and a supporter of voter turnout efforts in Wisconsin, I’m eager to contribute in any way I can. Plus, I’m looking forward to meeting Julia Louis-Dreyfus—she seems delightful.”
