Jim Carrey, America Ferrera, Rachel Bloom, Join the Vulture Festival LA Lineup

Vulture today announced additions to THE LINEUP for its second annual Vulture Festival Los Angeles Presented by AT&T, a weekend of high-profile events bringing the entertainment site to life, and an expansion of the pop-culture extravaganza that has taken place in New York City for the last five years. Vulture Festival Los Angeles's lineup includes actors in conversation, exclusive screenings, cast reunions, live podcasts, a comedy show, table reads, a private museum tour, and more, taking place November 17-18, primarily at the iconic Hollywood Roosevelt in Los Angeles, with select events at other venues. Additional events will be announced in the coming weeks.

Joining the already-announced events, additions to the two-day live showcase, curated by Vulture's editors, are:

· JIM CARREY IN CONVERSATION WITH JERRY SALTZ. While he's not being one of the most legendary comedic and dramatic award-winning actors, Jim Carrey is a prolific fine artist, producing paintings, sculptures, and mixed media pieces. With the election of Donald Trump, Carrey's work turned decisively political, drawing the attention of art fans and critics. One of those critics is New York Magazine and Vulture senior art critic, the Pulitzer Prize-winning Jerry Saltz. They will meet at Vulture Festival to talk about art, in all its forms.

· THE OTHER TWO WORLD PREMIERE WITH SPECIAL GUEST MODERATOR FRED ARMISEN. Comedy Central's upcoming scripted series, The Other Two, stars Drew Tarver as a 28-year-old actor struggling to get better auditions than "Man at Party Who Smells Fart," and Heléne Yorke as his 30-year-old sister, who is struggling in general. As the two work toward finding themselves, their lives are completely upended when their 13-year-old brother, Chase, becomes incredibly famous overnight. Executive-produced by Lorne Michaels, the half-hour series is created, written, and executive-produced by award-winning former co-head writers of Saturday Night Live, Chris Kelly and Sarah Schneider. Following the world premiere screening of the pilot episode, join Kelly and Schneider as they talk about their creative process and the world of comedy alongside stars Tarver and Yorke and panel moderator Fred Armisen.

· RACHEL BLOOM: IN CONVERSATION. Rachel Bloom, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend co-creator-star and Vulture Festival VIP, once again graces us with her presence for a rousing discussion about her four seasons of CW bliss, the art of being a co-creator and executive producer, and, presumably, musical theater.

· BEHIND THE SCENES OF JANE THE VIRGIN. Creator and showrunner Jennie Snyder Urman and the writers of the show sit down to talk about the initial creation of the Villanueva family, crafting believable drama in a heightened reality, and how they escaped the sophomore slump to continue telling rich and often hilarious stories with characters you can't help rooting for in every episode.

· TO ALL THE BOYS I'VE LOVED BEFORE'S LANA CONDOR AND JENNY HAN. The rom-com has never been more alive in the 21st century, thanks to films like To All the Boys I've Loved Before.
