Andy Samberg is pedalling back into view with a new mockumentary, with his latest sports send-up poking fun at cycling’s doping scandals.
Tour de Pharmacy, which was created by the Jewish comedy star, focuses on fictional events surrounding the 1982 Tour de France. As well as starring Samberg himself, other famous Jewish faces on the “tour” include JJ Abrams, Jeff Goldblum, Nathan Fielder and Maya Rudolph. It also includes a “secret informant”, which the trailer reveals to be Lance Armstrong, the seven time winners of the Tour de France who was stripped of his titles after being found guilty of long-term doping offences.
It premieres on HBO on July 8
