Drawing inspiration from Prince Andrew’s notorious BBC interview with Emily Maitlis, Scoop boasts an exceptional ensemble cast, with the talented Gillian Anderson from Sex Education taking on the lead role as a reporter. Additionally, the film marks the return of Philip Martin, the acclaimed director of Netflix’s The Crown, who brings his expertise to yet another enthralling royal drama.

Get ready to delve into the intriguing world of this upcoming drama film as we provide you with all the details, including the trailer, plot, and cast.
In the trailer, we observe how a single interview with the media can completely change the perception. The prince of the royal family experiences intense backlash from the public when he confesses his association with the pedophile and sex offender without displaying any remorse towards Virginia Giuffre. Scoop dramatizes the notorious interview between Prince Andrew and Newsnight anchor Emily Maitlis. The storyline primarily focuses on Prince Andrew’s tarnished reputation following the interview and his connections with the convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Gillian Anderson, Keeley Hawes, Billie Piper, and Rufus Sewell play significant roles in the movie.
The biographical drama further explores the consequences of the 2019 interview and Andrew’s subsequent criticism, leading to his removal from his royal responsibilities. The groundbreaking interview showcases the courageous efforts of journalists in their pursuit of justice and truth. Scoop is a homage to reporters who go to great lengths to uncover significant stories. Gillian Anderson, famous for her role as Dr. Jean F. Millburn, takes on the role of the fearless journalist Maitlis in the movie. Rufus Sewell (The Diplomat) portrays Prince Andrew, Keeley Hawes stars as Amanda Thirsk, Andrew’s ex-private secretary, and Billie Piper plays Sam McAlister, the producer of Newsnight.
