Scoop trailer – New look at Prince Andrew Netflix movie with Gillian Anderson | Films | Entertainment

The latest trailer has landed for the new Netflix movie Scoop, which dramatises the behind-the-scenes of Prince Andrew’s infamous Newsnight interview with Emily Maitlis.

Gillian Anderson stars as the former BBC journalist opposite Rufus Sewell as the Duke of York in his “car crash” interview about his friendship with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Scoop is based on the memoir of former BBC Producer Sam McAlister, played by Billie Piper, who secured the landmark 1-2-1.

The film’s official synopsis reads: “Inspired by real events, SCOOP is the inside account of the tenacious journalism that landed an earthshattering interview – Prince Andrew’s infamous BBC Newsnight appearance.

“From the tension of producer Sam McAlister’s high stakes negotiations with Buckingham Palace, all the way to Emily Maitlis’ jaw-dropping, forensic showdown with the Prince, SCOOP takes us inside the story, with the women who would stop at nothing to get it. To get an interview this big, you have to be bold.”

Scoop lands on Netflix on April 5, 2024.
