Fans won’t need to wait long for A24’s new comedy starring Andrew Scott and Lena Dunham. Paramount+ has finally set a release date for It Gets Worse. The comedy follows three university best friends in London who, after being kicked out by their landlord, set out to turn their miserable lives around. Creator Leo Reich’s show will start streaming on Paramount+ on November 6, 2026.
Before that happens, It Gets Worse will premiere at the 70th BFI London Film Festival this month. A new clip was also released recently, showing Reich and Scott sharing a steamy scene. In it, Reich’s character expressed his frustrations with life and wondered if things could get better.
