[via press release from Netflix]

FIRST LOOK + DATE ANNOUNCEMENT

STARRING JULIA GARNER & ANTHONY BOYLE PREMIERES NOVEMBER 19, ONLY ON NETFLIX.

Exclusive quotes from The Co-Showrunners of The Altruists, as told to TUDUM.COM:

"From the very beginning, I was so fascinated by both Sam's and Caroline's real stories. Those are both characters who I could not have possibly made up had I tried - I'm not nearly a good enough writer to create characters as fascinating as either Sam Bankman-Fried or Caroline Ellison... This form [of storytelling] allowed us to tell not just a kind of headline version of the story, but to tell what we believed was the much more fascinating, intimate, personal, deeply heartbreaking story of these two people." - Writer/Creator/Showrunner/ EP Graham Moore

" I think viewers will find our deeply intimate story of these two individuals with morally conflicted motives fascinating, and will ultimately have a better understanding of why they did what they did." - Writer/Showrunner/Executive Producer Jacqueline Hoyt

MEET GEN Z'S OWN BONNIE & CLYDE
