The Julia Louis-Dreyfus-starrer returns to HBO on April 24.

Selina Meyer is praying for miracles to tackle the explosions of Veep's fifth season.

And according to HBO's new trailer for the Emmy-winning series, an economic crash is on the horizon -- not to mention, a tryst with John Slattery.

But still, the old problems remain, as Anna Chlumsky's Amy Brookheimer must stress, as usual, "It is imperative that you look presidential right now."

Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Tony Hale, Reid Scott, Timothy Simons, Matt Walsh, Sufe Bradshaw, Gary Cole, Kevin Dunn, Hugh Laurie and more all return for the new season, which is the first under new showrunner David Mandel.

Veep returns April 24 at 10:30 p,m. on HBO.
