Scripted comedy series Living With Yourself stars Paul Rudd as a man struggling with his life who undergoes a novel treatment to become a better person, and finds he's been replaced by a new and improved version -- revealing that his own worst enemy is himself. Rudd will star in season one of this fresh and inventive philosophical comedy that asks: do we really want to be better? Paul Rudd is currently starring in Marvel's Ant-Man and the Wasp which he also co-wrote. The film has grossed $430 million at the global box office and will open in China, Japan and other markets later this month. 8 episodes have been ordered from Creator / Showrunner / Executive Producer Timothy Greenberg (The Daily Show with Jon Stewart) and Series Directors/ EPs: Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris (the Oscar-nominated Little Miss Sunshine, Battle of the Sexes). The cast has Paul Rudd in a dual role, but additional casting to be announced. The series was originally developed for IFC.
