Maya Rudolph and Dana Carvey Return to SNL as Harris and Biden
EXCLUSIVE: This is not a joke, here's the deal and let me make it clear: Dana Carvey, who just wrapped up his latest hilarious parody of a faltering President Biden, will star in the upcoming documentary Playing POTUS, from director Josh Greenbaum.
The film, currently in production at EverWonder Studio in association with Delirio Films and Green Bomb Productions, will feature new interviews with Carvey, whose impressions have ranged from Joe Biden to George H.W. Bush, Ross Perot, and Bill Clinton; Maya Rudolph, who currently stars as Kamala Harris on SNL; Alec Baldwin (Pres. Trump); Will Ferrell (Pres. George W. Bush – remember “Strategery”?), Keegan-Michael Key (Pres. Obama and his alter ego “Luther”); Jay Pharoah (also Pres. Obama); Darrell Hammond (Pres. Clinton, VP Al Gore, VP Dick Cheney), and more.
"The film will tackle the uniquely American tradition of presidential parody, a daring art form that has transformed our perception of real presidents and politicians over the past 60 years," a press release about the project said. "[T]hese iconic impressions have had an outsized and lasting impact on American politics that has gone completely unexamined until now."
