Multi-award-winning series Succession skewered the lives of the super-rich as it followed media mogul Logan Roy and his treacherous, power-hungry family members. Now, its creator Jesse Armstrong is taking another deep dive into the world of the obscenely rich with his new movie project, Mountainhead.

Also making his directorial debut, Armstrong introduces us to four 'tech bro' heavyweights – Randall (Steve Carell), Souper (Jason Schwartzman), Venis (Cory Michael Smith) and Jeff (Ramy Youssef) – who meet at Souper's luxury mountaintop retreat for one of their regular poker weekends.
