'President Is Missing' Not Moving Forward Despite Filming Half the Series - Find Out Why

The President is Missing, the upcoming Showtime show from Bill Clinton and James Patterson‘s book by the same title, is officially not moving forward.

The show was supposed to be on Showtime, but the star of the series Ann Dowd revealed the news and the reason being a “combination of COVID-19 and current political events.”

“[Production] stopped midway and then because of the pandemic, the relevance of it, things needed to be changed in the writing because of what happens to the President. It just wouldn’t have worked. It would have had to have been re-conceived,” Ann told Variety.
