T10 WHATS UP! April 24 - 30, 2022 Hiro ("Bombshell," 2019). Mitchell, described as tempera- mental, foul-mouthed and ruth- less, is loyal to Nixon but also deeply in love with his wife. As a result, he faces an impossible choice. The conflicted character is in good hands with Penn, a two-time Academy Award win- ner for "Mystic River" (2003) and "Milk" (2008). His other credits include "Dead Man Walking" (1995) and "21 Grams" (2003). Penn is also well known for his activism, most recently for speaking out about the Rus- sian invasion of Ukraine. Roberts and Penn are joined by a solid supporting cast in "Gaslit." Dan Stevens portrays John Dean, a hotshot lawyer who ris- es through the ranks to serve as White House counsel. While Dean is ambitious, he does struggle with whether he can lie to protect the president. Stevens may be familiar to North Ameri- can TV fans from his role in FX's "Legion," a Marvel superhero show that aired from 2017-19. He first rose to fame, however, as Matthew Crawley in the British historical drama "Downton Ab- bey" before playing the Beast in 2017's live action "Beauty and the Beast." Betty Gilpin plays Dean's love interest, Mo, who falls for the man just as the Watergate scandal blows up and soon finds herself thrust onto the na- tional stage. Gilpin has earned three Primetime Emmy nomi- nations for Outstanding Sup- porting Actress in a Comedy Series for her role as Debbie "Liberty Belle" Eagan in the Netflix series "GLOW." She also appeared in Showtime's "Nurse Jackie" and on the big screen in "True Story" (2015), "A Dog's Journey" (2019), "The Grudge" (2020) and "The Hunt" (2020). Other supporting players in- clude Shea Whigham as former FBI agent G. Gordon Liddy. As one of Nixon's chief operatives, he takes the lead on the Water- gate espionage operation and is driven to protect the president at all costs. Best known for his role as Eli in "Boardwalk Em- pire," Whigham also starred in Season 1 of "True Detective" and Season 3 of "Fargo." Darby Camp portrays Mar- tha's long-suffering daughter, Marty. While starring opposite Reese Witherspoon in HBO's "Big Little Lies" from 2017-19, she also played roles in "Benji" (2018) and "The Christmas Chronicles" (2018). Allison Tolman, meanwhile, has landed a recurring role as D.C. journalist Winnie McLen- don, who would later become Martha's biographer. TV view- ers may recognize Tolman for her Emmy- and Golden Globe- nominated role as Molly Solver- son in "Fargo." With such talent both in front of the camera and behind the scenes, "Gaslit" promises to be one of the television events of the year.
