身为《华盛顿报道》的一位名记,卡尔·麦卡弗里(罗素·克劳饰)最近的日子不怎么好过,身边有不少烦心事困扰着他,而曾经很热爱这份工作的他,也已经好几年没有拿到过一个好题材来进行报道了。本打算昏昏僵僵继续过日子的卡尔,正好让他碰上了斯蒂芬·柯林斯身边的这起谋杀案,政治谋杀,光鲜政客背后的丑闻,种种讯息使触角敏锐的卡尔感觉到,这起新闻背后有着很多可供挖掘的内容。报社也知道他在这方面的兴趣与能力,于是委派他作为这起报道的记者。当然,一个更重要的原因报社和卡尔都心照不宣:卡尔曾经是斯蒂芬的竞选顾问,在他身边出谋划策的日子不再少数。  卡尔和漂亮的女助手德拉(瑞秋·麦克亚当斯饰)一起开始追查这起案件背后的诸多故事。虽然警方一直对外宣称正在侦破,但从诸多信息来看,这起案件警局一直没有深入追查,这是为什么呢?卡尔和德拉决心要找出真相,查明凶手是谁。鉴于自己过去和斯蒂芬的关系,卡尔发现斯蒂芬已经不再是过去他所认识的那位充满干劲活力的年轻人,在政坛浸淫多年的他,已经变得圆滑世故。同时在追查过程里,卡尔逐渐发现这起案件牵扯了许许多多的富得流油的政客。最终,卡尔发现了一个事实:当一个人面对改变自己命运的时刻,爱情和别人的性命……一切东西,他都可以出卖。

曾拍《大空头》(The Big Short)聚焦美国次贷危机的导演亚当·迈凯(Adam McKay)日前与派拉蒙签约,将导演一部讲述美国前副总统迪克·切尼(Dick Cheney)故事的传记片。而布拉德·皮特的“B计划”制片公司也将继《点球成金》、《大空头》后再次与迈凯合作,制作这部电影。迪克·切尼号称是美国历史上最有权势的副总统,他也是现任美国副总统彭斯(Mike Pence)的效仿对象。布什当政八年时间里,表面上切尼是美国的二号人物,但实际上小布什总统(George W. Bush)的很多决定,包括阿富汗战争、入侵伊拉克等都是由他定夺的。切尼本人是一个充满争议的矛盾体。他一直都是保守党派,曾为尼克松、福特、老布什政府做过幕僚,后进入哈利伯顿公司当了几年CEO,然后和小布什一起入主白宫;但他对于同性恋婚姻却持支持态度,因为他的女儿是一名女同性恋。此外,切尼五次拖延不愿去越战战场,却是个不折不扣的主战鹰派。亚当·迈凯说:“我一直觉得切尼是个有意思的人物,很想搞清楚究竟是什么在驱动他、他到底信仰什么。所以我们就做了深挖调查,结果令人震惊,切尼堪称是美国现代史上最有权力的政治人物,他在很大程度上塑造了美国现在的国际地位,而他为了攫取权力所采取的方式也令人瞠目结舌。” 亚当·迈凯希望能在2017年春拍摄本片,并在年底上映。目前他正在物色合适的演员人选。 亚当·迈凯拍摄《切尼传》,意味着他之前接手的《坏血》(Bad Blood)项目要往后推迟了。

Mister Sterling is an American television serial drama created by Lawrence O'Donnell that ran from January to March in 2003. It starred Josh Brolin as an idealistic United States Senator, and featured Audra McDonald, William Russ, David Noroña, and James Whitmore as members of his staff. Despite mostly positive reviews, the show, which aired on NBC on Friday nights, was cancelled after 10 episodes after the show only ranked 58th in the yearly ratings Although it had numerous similarities to The West Wing in style and tone, it was not set in the same universe as O'Donnell's other political show. It is unknown if a cross-over would have ever occurred had Mister Sterling not been cancelled; however Steven Culp played presidential aspirant Sen. Ron Garland on Mister Sterling and House Speaker Jeff Haffley on The West Wing, and Democrats appeared to be in the majority in the US Senate on Mr Sterling, while in The West Wing consistent Republican control of both Houses of Congress was a key plot point. James Whitmore was nominated for a 2003 Emmy Award for Outstanding Guest Actor in a Drama Series for playing former Governor Bill Sterling, the senator's father.
