White House Plumbers: Harrelson, Theroux Watergate Series Gets Teaser
Speaking of 2023 shows that we're looking forward to, an official teaser for Emmy Award-winner David Mandel's (Veep) Woody Harrelson & Justin Theroux-starring limited series White House Plumbers dropped earlier today. Set to debut on HBO and HBO Max in March 2023, White House Plumbers tells the story of how Nixon's own political saboteurs and Watergate masterminds E. Howard Hunt (Harrelson) and G. Gordon Liddy (Theroux) accidentally toppled the presidency they were zealously trying to protect. As impressive as it is having Harrelson and Theroux as leads, just wait until you see who else is joining them in this five-episode look at how the government became a threat to our democracy… decades before Donald Trump.
With the limited series set to premiere in March 2023, here's a look at an official teaser for HBO's White House Plumbers:
