It’s not all bad for Kathy Griffin. The comedian, who recently announced a diagnosis of stage 1 lung cancer, joined the cast of HBO Max comedy Search Party, season 5.
According to an exclusive report by Variety, Griffin’s role will be recurring. She will play conspiracy theorist Liquorice Montague, who acts as a mentor of sorts to Chantal (played by Clare McNulty). In the new scenario, debuting in season 5, Chantal will be Montague’s “co-dependent apprentice.”
In a joint statement obtained by Variety, showrunners Charles Rogers and Sarah-Violet Bliss praised Griffin for her performance.
“Working with Kathy was a huge life moment for us,” reads the statement. “She brought so much warmth, humanity and professionalism to set, and delivered a performance that will delight the world.”
