The series is based on Gabriel Sherman‘s bestselling book, The Loudest Voice in the Room, which included interviews with more than 600 people.

Naomi Watts stars as Gretchen Carlson, Sienna Miller is Roger‘s wife Elizabeth, Seth MacFarlane stars as Brian Lewis, Simon McBurney is Rupert Murdoch, Annabelle Wallis is Laurie Luhn and Aleksa Palladino is Roger‘s longtime assistant Judy Laterza.

Here’s a plot summary: in today’s politically charged media landscape, no figure looms larger, even after his passing, than Roger Ailes, who molded Fox News into a force that irrevocably changed the conversation about the highest levels of government. To understand the events that led to the rise of the modern Republican Party, one must understand Ailes. The upcoming limited series takes on that challenge, focusing primarily on the past decade in which Ailes arguably became the Republican Party’s de facto leader, while also touching on defining events in Ailes’ life, including his experiences with world leaders that gave birth to Ailes’ political career and the sexual harassment accusations and settlements that brought his Fox News reign to an end. The series aims to shed light on the psychology that drives the political process from the top down.
