Showtime is expected to move up the premiere date for its upcoming limited series based on former FBI director James Comey’s memoir to have it air before the November election.
Last week, Showtime announced that “The Comey Rule,” which stars Brendan Gleeson as President Donald Trump, would air in late November. The election is scheduled for Nov. 3. “We will be announcing several changes to our schedule and ‘The Comey Rule’ is most likely moving to air before the election,” a Showtime spokesperson said on Tuesday.
The New York Times was first to report on the upcoming move and added that “Comey Rule” director Billy Ray was unhappy with the initial decision to have it air after the election.
