The Comey Rule is the new series produced by Showtime. Scheduled for September 27, 2020, this political series traces the first months of President Donald Trump's term. And more specifically his tumultuous relationship with the former director of the FBI: James Comey.
A series under tension
Based on James Comey's memoir: A Higher Loyalty, The Comey Rule plans to be quite bloody. Indeed, we return here to the dismissal of Comey, former director of the FBI, by the current tenant of the White House. James Coney is, among other things, the one who investigated the 2016 presidential elections and who highlighted the involvement of the Russian government in them. On the casting side, it is the Irish actor Brendan Gleeson who will have the task of interpreting Donald Trump on screen. The actor has already made appearances in famous films such as Harry Potter 4, Edge of Tommorow or Gangs of New York. His opponent, James Coney, will be played by actor Jeff Daniels. The latter played in the film Alone on Mars. Although based on historical facts, the series is not a biopic. The TV channel Showtime has just shared the first trailer of the series. And in this trailer, we can feel the tension between the two men. Between false smiles in front of the flashes of paparazzi and low blows, the series promises real entertainment. The series will be divided into 4 episodes and will be broadcast over 2 days: From Monday, September 27 to Tuesday, September 28. However, the series still does not have French broadcasters, which means that we are not likely to see the episodes anytime soon. This political series highlighting a very big case that taints Trump's mandate, comes out before the highly anticipated US presidential elections. Chance of the calendar or real coup de com? Anyway, this series promises to be talked about. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VRwV90oZuYQ
