Tina Satter's Is This A Room is coming to the big screen! The recently-announced movie adaptation will star Euphoria and White Lotus's Sydney Sweeney as whistleblower Reality Winner, according to Deadline.
The actor will be joined by stage and screen actor Josh Hamilton, who starred in Broadway's Proof, The Coast of Utopia, and Dead Accounts, and TV's The Walking Dead, along with Marchánt Davis, who starred in The Public Theatre's Ain't No Mo and The Lincoln Center's The Great Society.
Is This A Room interprets the transcript of the FBI interrogation of former Air Force intelligence specialist and government whistleblower Winner, who leaked an intelligence report about Russian interface in the 2016 United States elections.
