Jeff Garlin – who co-executive produces and stars as Larry’s manager – was the first one to tease the renewal on Monday with a post captioned: ‘This will happen again.’

‘This past season tapped into the zeitgeist in such an uncomfortably delightful way,’ HBO’s executive vice president Amy Gravitt said in the press release.

‘Larry is already brainstorming ideas, and we can’t wait to see what he has in store.’

David portrays a thinly-veiled version of himself in the (mostly) improvised show, so fans can imagine how he’d respond to the COVID-19 crisis and nationwide racial unrest.
