Pentagon Papers (The Post) will trace the period when the Washington Post tried to expose a Pentagon secret under President Nixon in the United States. And for that, Steven Spielberg has surrounded himself with the best!
For the first time in cinema, an American film brings together Meryl Streep and Tom Hanks, both big Hollywood stars. The American newspaper Washington Post finds itself in a very delicate position, since they have the opportunity to reveal top-secret information about the Vietnam War: the Pentagon Papers. This is evidence that US administrations lied to the general public for three decades to shape their view of the conflict. The characters played by Meryl Streep and Tom Hanks will be determined to make this huge revelation to the population. However, they will realize that their actions will not remain without consequences…
The cast will also include Bob Odenkirk (Breaking Bad), David Cross (Arrested Development), Sarah Paulson (American Horror Story), Carrie Coon (Gone Girl), Bradley Whitford (Get Out), Zach Woods (The Office), Alison Brie (GLOW) and many more! If an Oscar-worthy performance isn't hiding in this five-star cast, we don't know what you need.
The American public will be able to discover Pentagon Papers from December 22 for a limited release (especially for Oscar eligibility), then from January 12 for a national release. In France, it will unfortunately be necessary to wait until February 28 to enjoy the next Spielberg in the dark rooms. Discover in the meantime below the first trailer of the film!
