On Wednesday, Starz dropped a new trailer for the upcoming series Gaslit, which stars the veteran actress as Martha Mitchell, the first person to publicly accuse President Nixon of being involved in Watergate. She stars alongside an almost unrecognizable Sean Penn as her husband and Nixon's Attorney General John Mitchell.
Gaslit is a modern take on Watergate that focuses on the untold story of Martha Mitchell, whose accusations of the President cause both the Presidency and her personal life to quickly unravel.
As Attorney General, John Mitchell is Nixon's most trusted advisor and best friend. Temperamental and ruthless — yet hopelessly in love with his famously outspoken wife — he'll be forced to choose between Martha and the President.
