AceShowbiz - "Happyish" debuts a new trailer, giving more sneak peek at Steve Coogan's 44-year-old Thom Payne in his pursuit of happiness. In a conversation with his wife (Kathryn Hahn), he reveals his concerns that Viagra might interfere with his Prozac.
The role was originally set to be played by Philip Seymour Hoffman before it was recast following his death. "Steve's range is astounding - he is a comedy legend, a gifted satirist, and he possesses the unique combination of talents this role demands," said creator Shalom Auslander.
A pilot was originally filmed with Hoffman before his passing on February 2 last year, but a new one was filmed after the recasting. The comedy picked up to series a year ago will now premiere April 26 on Showtime.
