Veep Creator Claims He Can’t Get Trump Project Funded Because Backers Don’t Want to Land On a Revenge ‘List’
"Veep creator Armando Iannucci revealed he’s been struggling to get a project related to President Donald Trump funded because studios and financiers fear retribution.
Iannucci said at a Creative UK event this week that his project is based on Trump’s speeches and he’s been warned no funding will be found in the United States. Iannucci’s Veep ran for seven seasons on HBO.
“I got a lot of, ‘Yeah, you wouldn’t get the money for that at the moment, I’m afraid.’ So I said, ‘Why not?’ [They replied] ‘Well, you know, if you want what comes with it…'” he said, according to Deadline."
