Though not much is known about this project yet, Jay Roach (who's best known for directing the Austin Powers films and Meet the Parents) is directing this one, telling the stories of the female Fox News employees who took a stand against its late founder and chairman Roger Ailes. After several reports of Ailes's sexual misconduct toward former Fox News anchors Megyn Kelly and Gretchen Carlson came to light, several more women stepped forward until the mogul was eventually forced to resign in 2016. The Big Short writer Charles Randolph wrote the script, and the cast is filled with A-listers, including John Lithgow as Ailes, Nicole Kidman as Carlson, Charlize Theron as Kelly, Allison Janney as Susan Estrich, and Kate McKinnon and Margot Robbie in fictionalized roles.
Release date: Dec. 20
