Part of Sorkin's cast:
- Jessica Chastain ("The Zookeeper's Wife") Molly is a winner because her father won't accept any less. It's clear that she is the smartest person in the room.
- Jeremy Strong ("Masters of Sex") Dean is her first boss. Acid-tongued, insulting and demeaning, he will never win a Mr. Congeniality contest.
- Idris Elba ("Luther") Attorney Charlie reluctantly steps up to the plate; the FBI has a pretty solid case, so he can only hope her book sells well. Eventually, he comes to think that she belongs on a box of Wheaties.
- Kevin Costner ("Hidden Figures") Larry is worried about Molly because he knows his daughter knows more than she knows she knows.
- Michael Cera ("Arrested Development") Player X has a lot more invested than I expected.
- Graham Greene ("Longmire" and "Maverick") Judge Foxman is in charge. Do NOT miss his summation!
Naturally we like to guess the names of those high-stakes gamblers because her "guests" include sports figures, movie stars, Hollywood movers and shakers, professionals from Jersey, and the Russian mob. This of course is the crux of the problem, the FBI wants their names, too.
