Netflix sets Nov. 19 release for FTX drama 'The Altruists'
Netflix released a trailer for 'The Altruists,' a scripted series dramatizing the collapse of FTX, starring Anthony Boyle as Sam Bankman-Fried and Julia Garner as Caroline Ellison. The show premieres November 19, and co-showrunner Graham Moore said he was drawn to the real-life stories of both central figures.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
The series adds to a growing wave of Hollywood productions mining recent tech scandals for drama, following projects on Elizabeth Holmes and Theranos. Such dramatizations could shape public perception of the FTX collapse and effective altruism more broadly, independent of the ongoing legal and financial fallout from the case.
