EMMY(R)-NOMINATED HBO COMEDY SERIES "VEEP," CREATED BY ARMANDO IANNUCCI AND STARRING EMMY(R)-WINNER JULIA LOUIS-DREYFUS, RETURNS FOR ITS FOURTH SEASON APRIL 12

Having become president after her predecessor stepped down, Selina Meyer is about to give her first major speech as commander-in-chief, though it remains to be seen whether her term will outlast that of America's shortest-serving president, William Henry Harrison. With the stakes for Selina and her team higher than ever before, she must still run for election, and in the weeks to come they will grapple with how to make her seem "presidential."

The Emmy(R)-nominated comedy series VEEP kicks off its ten-episode fourth season SUNDAY, APRIL 12 (10:30-11:00 p.m. ET/PT), exclusively on HBO. Created by Armando Iannucci (Oscar(R) nominee for co-writing "In the Loop"), the show stars Emmy(R) and Screen Actors Guild Award winner Julia Louis-Dreyfus as President Selina Meyer, for whom even the most banal action can set off a ripple effect that has unexpected and far-reaching consequences.

The ensemble cast of the show also includes Emmy(R) winner Tony Hale ("Arrested Development") as Gary, her devoted bodyman; Emmy(R) nominee Anna Chlumsky ("In the Loop") as Amy, her campaign manager; Reid Scott ("The Intern") as Dan, Selina's senior advisor; Matt Walsh ("Into the Storm") as Mike, her weathered press secretary; Timothy C. Simons ("The Interview") as Jonah, vying to get back onto the White House staff; Sufe Bradshaw ("Overnight") as Sue, President Meyer's wry executive assistant; Kevin Dunn (HBO's "True Detective") as Ben, president's chief of staff; Emmy(R) nominee Gary Cole ("The Good Wife") as senior strategist Kent; and new series regular Sam Richardson ("The Office") as Richard, a White House staffer.

Recurring guest stars on the new season include Patton Oswalt ("The Goldbergs") as Teddy, the new vice president's hands-on chief of staff; Sarah Sutherland (HBO's "The Newsroom") as Catherine, Selina's daughter; and Hugh Laurie ("House M.D.") as a powerful political figure.

Teddy does Jonah a favor, while continuing to invade his personal space. Stuck in traffic with Richard, Amy learns via FaceTime that Selina is bringing in a new director of communications.

When the personal details of a previously anonymous girl mentioned by the president are leaked, Selina's team tries to find a scapegoat for the data breach. Catherine tells Selina she wants to support an anti-bullying campaign; Dan tasks Jonah and Richard with buying fireworks for a campaign rally. While Mike is about to make a dreadful error at a press conference, the president hosts the annual Easter Egg Roll and reads a story to the assembled kids.
