Julia Louis-Dreyfus, American actress and star of political satire "Veep," will host a panel with eight female Democratic governors during the Democratic National Convention next week.
"I'm honored to host this conversation with America's Democratic women governors while our party comes together to celebrate in Chicago," Louis-Dreyfus said in a press release, adding that Democratic women governors have "made history" and that "their voices are essential."
"Veep" ran for seven years on HBO and concluded in 2019, but viewership recently resurged as fans noticed parallels between the fictional plot and real-life politics.
Like Kamala Harris, Louis-Dreyfus' character Selina Meyer served as a female vice president of the United States. She undertook her own presidential campaign after the sitting president changed his mind about reelection and dropped out of the race.
The day after President Biden stepped down from the 2024 presidential race, the Emmy-award winning series reportedly experienced a 353% increase in viewership, according to data from Luminate, an entertainment data company that tracks streaming viewership.
Louis-Dreyfus appeared at the 2020 DNC where she served as an emcee and made multiple jabs at former President Donald Trump.
In 2020, Harris wrote on X, "Veep to veep, you're crushing it!"

The vice presidential debate hosted by CBS News is set for Oct. 1 in New York City, the network announced on Thursday morning, with both Gov. Tim Walz and Sen. JD Vance agreeing to participate.
Vance on Thursday agreed to debate Walz on Oct. 1.
The debate will be moderated by "CBS Evening News" anchor and managing editor Norah O'Donnell and "Face the Nation" moderator and CBS News chief foreign affairs correspondent Margaret Brennan.
CBS News on Wednesday said it invited the 2024 vice presidential nominees to debate, providing four dates as options. Walz indicated that he'd agreed to one on Oct. 1.
Vance said in a post on X that not only did he accept the CBS News debate on Oct. 1, but also challenged Walz to debate again on Sept. 18.
ABC News has asked the Harris campaign if Walz will also accept the Sept. 18 debate.
"The American people deserve as many debates as possible, which is why President Trump has challenged Kamala to three of them already," Vance said.

A spokesperson for JD Vance is pushing back after audio from a 2020 podcast resurfaced that seemed to suggest the vice presidential candidate agreed with the host, who said having grandmothers help raise children is "the whole purpose of the postmenopausal female."
"The media is dishonestly putting words in JD's mouth -- of course he does not agree with what the host said," Taylor Van Kirk, a Vance spokeswoman said in a statement to ABC News.
In April 2020, on "The Portal" podcast, Vance discussed with the host how his mother-in-law moved in with him and his wife, Usha, after they welcomed their first child to help support the couple and how it was a positive experience.
"It makes him a much better human being to have exposure to his grandparents, I don't know and the evidence on this, by the way, is like super clear," Vance said.
The host, Eric Weinstein, then said to Vance, "That's the whole purpose of the postmenopausal female in theory."
Vance said, "Yep" after the host said "menopausal."
Van Kirk said Wednesday night that Vance was reacting to another comment.
"JD reacted to the first part of the host's sentence, assuming he was going to say: 'that's the whole purpose of spending time with grandparents.' It's a disgrace that the media is lying about JD instead of holding Kamala Harris accountable for her policies that caused sky high prices for groceries and everyday necessities, a disaster at the southern border, and a historic drug overdose epidemic," her statement read.
