'THE POST,' A NEW THRILLING DRAMA

The Story of
            the first female publisher 
of a major American newspaper

Written by Liz Hannah and Josh Singer and directed by Steven Spielberg, The Post stars Meryl Streep and Tom Hanks. A thrilling drama about the unlikely partnership between The Washington Post's Katharine Graham (Streep), the first female publisher of a major American newspaper, and editor Ben Bradlee (Hanks), as they race to catch up with The New York Times to expose a massive cover-up of government secrets that spanned three decades and four U.S. Presidents. The two must overcome their differences as they risk their careers - and their very freedom - to help bring long-buried truths to light.
 
The Post marks the first time Meryl Streep, Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg have collaborated on a project. In addition to directing, Spielberg produces along with Amy Pascal and Kristie Macosko Krieger. 

The film features an acclaimed ensemble cast including Alison Brie, Carrie Coon, Tracy Letts, Sarah Paulson, David Cross, Bruce Greenwood, Bob Odenkirk, Jesse Plemons, Matthew Rhys, Michael Stuhlbarg, Bradley Whitford and Zach Woods.
​
The Post opens in theaters on December 22.
