First Promo For McKellen & Jacobi In VICIOUS
By: Pat Cerasaro Apr. 11, 2013
The first promo for the new ITV comedy VICIOUS starring Ian McKellen and Derek Jacobi has finally been released and it garners us a gander into the bawdy and bitchy world of the tailor-made new series.
On the show, McKellen and Jacobi portray longtime lovers arriving upon their silver anniversary and largely concerns their day-to-day existences living in Covent Garden, with their best friend, portrayed by Frances de la Tour, figuring into the drama and comedy of the series, as does their comely upstairs neighbor (played by Iwan Rheon) and various other characters.
VICIOUS was co-created by Gary Janetti, of Family Guy and WILL & GRACE fame, and Olivier Award-winning playwright Mark Ravenhill.
Keeping with the inherently and outwardly theatrical nature of the cast and creative team, the show is filmed before a live studio audience.
VICIOUS premieres on ITV later this year. Will you be tuning in to take in all the ribaldry?
