courtesy: peopleNetflix’s dramatization of the infamous interview of Prince Andrew for Newsnight has taken its first step with the launch of its first trailer.
The trailer has been dropped a few days after a series of first-look images were dropped, featuring Gillian Anderson as the notorious Emily Maitlis, whose tough question to the Prince led to an enormous humiliation on the latter’s part, who has since settled a sexual assault case filed against him by Jeffrey Epstein-accuser Virginia Giuffre.
The footage shows Maitlis striding towards the camera as the team prepares for the interview, which turned out to be the most shocking interview in the history of British TV.
To get an interview this big, you have to be bold.
