Late filmmaker and actor Rob Reiner appeared posthumously in this week’s episode of HBO‘s Life, Larry, and the Pursuit of Unhappiness, where he portrayed George Washington and took a veiled swipe at President Trump.
Reiner and his wife, Michele Singer Reiner, were found stabbed to death at their Brentwood home on Dec. 14. Their son, Nick Reiner, was soon arrested and charged with two counts of first-degree murder; he is currently being held without bail while awaiting trial in Los Angeles. He has pleaded not guilty.
On the new sketch comedy series from Larry David, executive produced in part by Barack and Michelle Obama through their Higher Ground production company, which aired its second episode on Friday, July 3, Reiner appeared as Washington before a crowd of colonists and announced he would not be running for a third term.
“I believe that no man should serve more than two terms as president,” Reiner, as Washington, said. “And I hope that future presidents will follow my lead.”
