Coming June 2012 is a new TV series “The Newsroom” on HBO. The cast includes Slumdog Millionaire‘s Dev Patel and former G4TV Attack of the Show host Olivia Munn. Here’s more about series:
From the mind of Aaron Sorkin, creator of The West Wing and screenwriter of The Social Network and Moneyball, comes The Newsroom, a behind-the-scenes look at the people who make a nightly cable-news program. Focusing on a network anchor (played by Jeff Daniels), his new executive producer (Emily Mortimer), the newsroom staff (John Gallagher, Jr., Alison Pill, Thomas Sadoski, Olivia Munn, Dev Patel) and their boss (Sam Waterston), the series tracks their quixotic mission to do the news well in the face of corporate and commercial obstacles-not to mention their own personal entanglements.
The series is set behind the scenes at the fictional Atlantis Cable News (ACN) with Dev Patel as Neal and Olivia Munn as Sloan, a financial analyst with a show on the network. The show premiere June 24, 2012.
