Will art imitate life? Luke Kirby teased how The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel will pay homage to Lenny Bruce’s real life — and how his potential onscreen relationship with Midge plays out.
“We felt a bit of a kind of duty to sort of start touching on the aspects of Lenny Bruce’s life that kind of led up to his dying young,” the actor, 43, told Us Weekly exclusively ahead of the season 4 premiere of the Amazon Prime sitcom. “We’re sort of bringing Lenny Bruce a little bit down to Earth this season and kind of exploring that a little bit.”
While Kirby noted that it’s “not up to” him if Lenny and Midge (Rachel Brosnahan) will get together, he did confess that he hopes the show will deal with the ramifications of his character’s eventual death. The late comedian passed away at the age of 40 in 1966.

Still, Kirby is hoping that the two comedians will manage to get together at some point. “I’m always a sucker for people going for it,” the Take This Waltz star said. “You know, what’s the point of saying goodbye? We’re all gonna have to say goodbye eventually [so] spend the night together.”
Whatever happens with Midge’s love life in season 4, show runner Amy Sherman-Palladino previously hinted that there will still be plenty of heartbreak and emotion. “We may be doing a little jump within the season, but when we first start up we want to [start after the season 3 finale],” the Gilmore Girls creator, 65, told The Hollywood
