James Comey CBS Studios Mini Sets Steven Pasquale As FBI Agent Peter Strzok, Oona Chaplin As Lawyer Lisa Page; Lovers’ E-Mail Exchanges Riled Trump & Embarrassed Bureau
adapted and is directing the limited series, which begins shooting next month. The seventh director of the FBI, Comey served from 2013-17, and his book covered his role in helping to change the Bush administration’s policies on torture and electronic surveillance to overseeing the Hillary Clinton email investigation as well as possible ties between the Trump campaign and Russia, and before that his tenure as a prosecutor of terrorists, mobsters and Martha Stewart.
Comey has publicly said that the duo damaged the bureau and Strzok was fired. He recently filed a wrongful termination suit against the FBI and Department of Justice, arguing that his text messages — sent through his FBI issued phone — were protected free speech. Strzok believes he is protected on First Amendment grounds and should be awarded back pay and reinstated.
Said Ray: “Lisa Page and Peter Strzok are complicated people who were central to a complicated moment in our history. I feel lucky to have such brilliant actors playing them.”
