Amy Poehler joined the cast of Peacock’s new comedy series Dig at its premiere in Beverly Hills, marking her first live-action leading television role since Parks & Recreation ended in 2015.
Poehler was accompanied by co-stars Geraldine Viswanathan, Fina Strazza and Antonia Thomas at the event on Monday night at the Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts. The cast later attended an after-party at Avra.
Recurring cast members Jason Mantzoukas and Brennan Lee Mulligan were also present, alongside special guest stars Max Greenfield and Dan Bucatinsky. Hugh Laurie, who is also one of the series’ leads, did not appear to attend the premiere.
What is Peacock’s Dig about?
The series follows a group of archaeologists and college students spending the summer at a dig site in Greece. Their discovery of a rare artefact sets the team on an adventure, according to Peacock.
Dig reunites Poehler with Mike Schur, co-creator of The Good Place. The pair have co-created the new comedy series.
All 10 episodes of Dig will be released for streaming simultaneously on November 23.
