‘Bombshell’: Everything We Know About the Fox News–Inspired Movie

The film was directed by Jay Roach. Roach helmed the HBO movie Game Change, about Sarah Palin, so political fare isn’t new territory for him.

It’s coming just in time for the holidays. The film will have stiff competition when it drops on December 20. The polarizing Cats adaptation comes out on the same day, and the Greta Gerwig–directed version of Little Women makes its grand debut only a few days later. Still, Bombshell seems as though it’ll be the right fit for anyone who wants to see intense, slow-brewing drama portrayed by some of the best actors out there.

The first trailer gives you an idea of what to expect. We got a closer look at Bombshell in the first full-length trailer that dropped on Tuesday, October 15. In the opening clip, we see Robbie on her first day at the news organization. She’s told she should approach the job by asking herself, “What would scare my grandmother or piss off my grandfather?” The trailer then switches to Kidman’s brilliant portrayal of Carson, who is watching herself onscreen while calling a meeting to discuss unwanted remarks she received both on- and off-camera. Then there is Theron’s masterful Kelly—she nails the voice perfectly—as she stares at a screen and hears Donald Trump make his infamously disgusting “bleeding” remark.

Watch it, below:

We will update this post with more information about the movie as it comes in.
