It’s so funny watching Tony Gilroy deny his show is political in every interview.
Clearly Disney doesn’t want him to talk about current events in any way shape or form so any time he’s asked about it he goes over the top denying it.
He’s always like “What me, the writer of the Bourne Films, State of Play, and Michael Clayton, write a politics show? Nooooo. My show is about history, it’s about uh, Rome. I don’t even watch the news, did anything interesting happen in the past ten years?”
